Honors

I read a couple of the articles which were about other peoples death experiences. One of the articles was about the experience of suicide. The father ended his life after years of depression by jumping off the top of a building. Another article I read was about the death of loved ones like mother, grandmother, and aunts. This story tells about how she moved on and had to just keep on living even though these people were not in her life.

I thought this was a very different topic to read about. Death is a very common subject that happens every single day. It is a naturally occurring thing which will happen to everyone. One of my big death experiences that I remember was after I lived in a new town for a couple years and I went back to my old town to see everyone on the fourth of July, which was exciting. One of the friends that I unexpectedly ran into was a girl I had crushed on before I had left. I finally got her phone number and contact information so we could keep in touch. The next day I came into town for a parade and learned that this same girl that I finally got to see and talk to had been killed in a hit in run accident that morning. It was a very sad event but I had to look at the bright side and move on with my life. Sure we could have had some fun conversations but I just had to live with her death. In some ways I just shrugged it off others it really hurt, but ironically this is Life. People take death in different ways and it is up to the person in how to handle it. Death does not really bother me. From the minute I was born, I live to die. It is more about how you live then the death itself. All in all I thought it was a different sort of read but it had some good points in it as well.
