Life evaluations

Our morning started with a rainy day- so we (or should I say I) decided we would take advantage of the inside weather and 'do school'. Within an hour this really swell, green, RoseArt liquid marker that Lydia was using broke apart- EVERYWHERE! I'd really like to tell the company what I think of their product as the same thing happened to Elizabeth yesterday- except her's happened on the hard floor, not new carpet- I thought it was a one-time fluke. Wrong! Lucky for RoseArt I can't find any contact info. Anyway, that began our morning- however, as 'life' happens, it's all put into perspective and the marker incident really isn't important at all- not compared to the precious value of life. I've learned that one of the friends we've grown up with was in a tragic motorcycle accident and has left this life, leaving behind a wife and 3 very young children- any death isn't easy, but sometimes it just seems harder when someone so young leaves this world. You just never know what can happen, it makes you realize what's really important. While I never spoke to him again after graduating school, our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends. May God bless you all~
