Sorrow and emptiness

This weekend held nothing but sorrow for my family: Death is one of those events that takes me back 10 or more steps back, temporarily shutting down my zeal for life.

When it was time to view the body of my passed cousin, Frank, I stood there and looked at what remained of an energetic, lively young man and couldn't help but think of what could have been going through his mind to "give up on this sinful world". When he lay in a coma, what possibly could he have been contemplating before he threw in the towel. 

As harsh as this thought passes through my mind, I ought to let it out. 

One more death increases that physical void of having a loved one taken away forever, and having to move past the harsh reality calls for a better shot at leading my life cautiously enough to do things that I was put on this earth to accomplish.

This calls for me to go back to the drawing board as do many life events call for...
