dramatic finals week

[Alex003]

Never have i heard the halls of my school be silent during passing periods....school on monday nobody made a sound all day, besides tears. No one saw this coming, a huge wake up call for all of us. Just goes to show you really don't have any idea whats going on behind closed doors for someone else.

Wow.....now that's heartwrenching when a young 'un feels so bad inside that there's no other alternative left but that. My heart goes out to the school and especially the family ....

A lot of times we lose sight of what's important and get wrapped around other things that can consume us if we're not careful. I'm sorry you and your friends have to go through that Alex. Things like that don't get easier as you get older, either.

This is sad..... so much life left to live...

At 18 years old I had a close friend shut himself in the garage and start both cars until he was gone. That's a very hard thing to digest and cope with! I choose not to judge him or those who take their own life because it is beyond understanding unless you are in their shoes. Suicide is a strange mystery and all too common. It's a tragedy anyway and I offer my condolences to all involved...
