i just dont get it

All my life i have had to deal with things that i dont think i should have so young in life...it all started at the age of 5 while i was kindergarten when i lost my mamaw, she was my life, she was everything to me, i saw her everyday and then all of sudden she wasnt there anymore. even at the age of 5 i knew exactly what was going on and was very emotional about it. every few years after that i was loosing someone that i loved my grand daddy when i was in 3rd grade, my pa when i was in 5th grade and my ma when i was in 7th grade. each time was horrible for me...with them all being sick at the times of their deaths and on up in age it was still no easier on me.

It was not until i was 19 years old that i knew the true feeling of tragedy. it was then that i lost the first person i loved at a young age. he was a cousin to me and a very good friend and he was taken away very suddenly in a car accident. i had never in my life felt the way i did at that time of losing him that way so young, something i still havent gotten over. after that there have been several more young people that i know that have passed including one of my brother in laws...its extremely sad. you cant describe the feeling when you find out someone so young has passed before they have even lived their lives. today yet another one. a very kind soul. always the sweetest guy, fun to be around, great sense of humor and very talented artist. the brother of one of my best friends...he was so young...my heart breaks for her and her family...what do ya say? what can ya do?

i find it disturbing at times when i think of all the people in my life that i have lost, many being so young...it really makes ya sit back and think...
