when day turns into night

after this, i'm done ranting for the day.


3 days ago i met a man who had just lost his wife two weeks ago.
he's got a son currently writing matric and another son trying to help him whilst studying IT.

he lost his wife to breast cancer.

if you could all see the pain this man is in, it would hurt you. he hasn't eaten in two weeks let alone sleep. he has no other family except a sister who ignores him. 
because his job is at home, he doesn't get out there and meet a whole bunch of new people.

so we're doing what we can to keep him pre-occupied and try get his mind off things but it'll never be the same for him or his family.

after meeting him and hearing this all, i went to bed feeling rather sickly.
i don't know how his sons manage.


if i was to lose any of my family members (especially my mother or father) or one of my friends, i would be devastated. i really don't know what i'd do.
 death is one of my biggest fears. there's the whole "what happens once you've passed away?" is that the end of your life? and you're never back again? i won't see anyone ever again..

the unknown really does scare me. i hate not knowing or being unsure.


and sometimes these thoughts come back to me in random and i get some sort of "panic" attack. but people have their ways of "getting away"...



all i can say is, truly appreciate everyone you have around you and make each minute worthwhile. don't let your life go to waste. time really does fly.


to all those reading, thank you for everything you've done for me, big  or small. and just being a part of my life.
