R.I.P.
My cousin, Lauren (17), died from a car wreck last weekend. She wasn't driving, her grandmother was. Her grandmother and her sister survived, she did not.
At her funeral, 600+ people showed up. There were over 60 at the private services. She was loved by all.
With Lauren gone, the world is a darker place.

- Paranoia Is a Survival Trait
- Pessimists are never disappointed - but sometimes, if they are very lucky, they can be pleasantly surprised...
- Even though everyone is out to get you, it doesn't matter unless you let them win.

Nothing is as simple as it seems in the beginning,
As hopeless as it seems in the middle,
Or as finished as it seems in the end.

Thanks...
Her parents are in the most need. I took it hard, but they are... Words can't express it.
She had a learning disability (though she was a poet and an artist - her poetry was astounding); her parents (natural and stepdad) her parents are pretty ripped up. I'll heal - they need the help...

Credo
...For of our time we lose so large a part
In serious trifles, and so oft let slip
The wine of every moment, at the lip
Its moment, and the moment of the heart.
We are awake so little on the earth,
And we shall sleep so long, and rise so late,
If there is any knocking at that gate
Which is the gate of death, the gate of birth.
—Arthur Symons, ca. 1895 I add my condolences to the stack. Die Welt ist alles, was der Fall ist.

Having a life end far too early is a difficult thing to work through. Having it taken by something as inane and utterly without value as an automobile makes it all the more painful. Thoughts are with you...
