Can you...

Can you miss someone you never really knew? Can you mourn for someone you only met once? His life was filled with joy, laughter, friendship. He was to be married on Saturday. Now he is seated at the right hand of the Father. I don't know God's plan for this, but I know that my heart hurts for the loved ones he has left behind.

They were both so young. I'm forced to realize how fragile and precious life is-how much we take for granted. We run away from things, hide from the truth, deceive ourselves into thinking we will never get old, die, cease to be, but in the end it happens anyway.

My heart is burdened for the loss. The answer is yes.

I think i know who you are talking about. I was sooo sad when i found out. I don't even know either of them. I couldn't say i had met them. Either way. The answer is yes.
