I've never thought about what I would do if I found out I was dying. Some people would spend all their money and go and see the world, others would spend all their time with family and loved ones and the rest just don't know. I'm one of the ones in the last category. Of course there are things I would want to do and places I would like to see, but I think that doing things with my friends and family would mean more to me. Just to be with them would mean a lot. I would tell only my close friends and family...I wouldn't want anyone pitying me.
I can't imagine one of my friends or someone in my family dying. It would be awful. In my head I imagine myself being alone at school. I see myself in the library and being the person that people talk about saying "What happened to her to make her want to be alone?", "She used to always be with her friends, why did she just leave them?" I always thought that your friends can get you through anything, but if one of your friends was gone, would it still be the same? Or would the friendship minus that one person tear apart?
It has never occurred to me how fast something can be over. One minute, you're there. The next you can be gone. Forever. As if you had never even been there to start with. Banished. I guess thats why we have to take care for and be grateful for the friendships we do have. From now on, I'm going to take people for who they are and what they are.
You never know whats happened in their past.
