Live life to the absolute maximum capacity

A friend was taken from this world last week. His death was untimely (he was in his 20's) and his murder remains unsolved.

I was lucky enough to have known a genuine spirit.

Although he and I met via common best friends, he treated me like I was one of his best friends from the start, no questions asked. He was so loved by MANY. Since his passing was public fact, there is a new status update, new wall post or new picture on his wall every 10 seconds! The kind words about him are endless and they just keep coming, seriously.

Here is one of the wall posts on his fb wall:

"[He] lived 28 beautiful, amazing, and fulfilled years. Full of dreams and passion. He traveled the world with a flag in one hand and a pair of scissors in another [he was in colorguard/drum core and a hair stylist]. He adored and honored his mother the way a real man should. He was a father figure to his brother and sister. He gave love unconditionally, he brought infectious laughter and joy to many lives. And when that man entered a room all eyes were on him because of his self awareness and his confidence. [He] lived more life in 28 years than most people live in a lifetime."

If it's one thing I saw in him and learned from his life, it's to live life to the absolute most maximum capacity which is with happiness and love as he did :) That is a true way to honor someone as great as he.

Even though it's been said over and over again, with just a blink of an eye, life can change. Life is too short. Maybe even let go of the smaller things in life, even the bad and even if they are bothersome.

Live, laugh & love.

A very serious blog

There are 3 kinds of people; those who can count and those who can't.
