I wanted to share a few things thats been on my mind. In May of last year i lost a close friend. She was 31 years old and fought cancer for a long time. She was one of my best friends because when i needed advise she was there. She told it like it was and regardless of what she said you knew she was right. I admired her, my friend Beth, on multiple levels. Everyone has said, "Before i die i'm going to.....(fill in the blank)". Well through out her cancer treatment she went to school to be a nurse. She would take Chemo and radiation treatments, be sick as anyone could be, and never miss a class. She graduated from nursing school and 10 days later she passed away. I think alot about my friend. Through everything she accomplished the one dream she set out to do. When i was feeling low she would gladly tell me it was all going to be okay, and then tell me to get my head out of my ass and quit feeling sorry for myself. You just had to love her. Its almost Christmas again and i was needing some advice from her. I know i'll be ok, and i know that life goes on. Today, i just miss a dear friend.
