death of a friend

My sympathies are with you. I agree with you, that we should try and live life to the fullest, and I believe that we honor our loved ones who have passed on by doing that.

I am so sorry. Losing someone you truly care about is never easy. My prayers go out to you in your time of need. I know first hand on how to treat each day as if it were your last because when I was 17 and on my way to school, I slid over into the other lane because the roads were so icy. Well, there happened to be a van coming and I was driving a small Pontiac Neon. I was in a coma for 1 month and in a rehabilitation hospital for 2 months. I got out of the hospital 1 day before I graduated. I am still paralized in the right side but I am just very thankful that I am alive. With that being said, I tell everyone to treat each day as if it were your lST.

Condolence.May he/she rest in peace.He/She is better off with God now than to suffer here on earth.May he/she find happiness in his/her new home.

I am terribly sorry to hear of your sad news. I would like to pay my condolences to you and the friends and family of your friend. it is terrible to lose someone at any time in life. You are so very right though. You can't predict when it is your time, so we must live each day as it is our last. Thank you for sharing that.

My condolences... i agre that we should live to the fullest, still it isnt always that easy but its at least worth trying. I believe that only God in heaven knows when its time for use to leave this earth, so yea one should try to enjoy and wisely use the time we have been given.

I am sorry for your loss. No words are adequate to diminish your pain. Hopefully time will diminish the hurt. Try to remember your friend for the good things that they brought to your life and know that they are at peace now.

I am so sorry, it is hard to lose a friend. It also brings us back to reality. We cannot take life for granted.

My condolences.... It is true we really have to make the best we could everyday of our lives.

I'm so sorry for your loss. It is hard to lose the people we know and love. How long had you been friends? It leaves a hole in your life.

I am very sorry to hear about your friend as it is always difficult to lose someone. We can never predict when we are going to leave this earth. I agree that we should live each day to its fullest and also as much as possible spread random acts of kindness. I don't consider myself to be morbid but I occasionally look through the obituaries of my local paper and am disturbed to see the number of people in their 30s and 40s who are passing away. Recently I saw the obituary of my old boss from when I worked at Best Buy. He was only 48 years old (my age). I know that he had diabetes for years and had several complications. He left the world with two grown children and a grandchild. His wife had passed many years before of another illness. So let's all take care to do what you say. I try to accomplish as much everyday as possible and to spread as much happiness as I can.

I am sorry for your loss, bgerug. And what you say is true, but unfortunately, unless soemthing happens, people, including myself, don't appreciate those they love until it is too late..:(

I'm sorry for your loss..We should live each day and care about it to the fullest. Not enough time here, it goes very fast..

My condolences, there are never any words to console someone during these times. I've lost some good friends in my life and it's never a pleasant thing. But you know what, I lost my best friend over 10 years ago and I feel like he's still here in spirit. I remember him today as clearly as if I saw him last week. Think of your friend and the fond memories, he/she will never leave your side.

I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your friend. You are absolutely right in saying that we should live each day to the fullest. Sometimes it's hard to keep that thought in mind, with all of the daily problems of life getting in our way. It's seems so important to tell the people that we love how important they are to us everyday. Again, I am sorry for your loss.

I am so, so sorry for your loss. You're very right that we never do know when we will lose someone we care for, or even when our time will come. I am sure you have some very wonderful memories of your friend that you can call upon and smile. Hang in there and cherish those times you and your friend had together! *hugs and prayers*

no ya sure cant tell when someone will die so I have always tried to live my life to the fullest and tell my loved ones I love them every day!

I am so sorry for your loss! We never imagine what a big hole is left when someone we love leaves like this. There is little to say, at this point, that can assuage the pain, but you are very right -- we need to "live each day to the fullest!" and honor those who have gone on before us as we do. Now, whenever you think, "(Jane/John) would have loved this!," know that you have just sent them the experience, with love.

I am very sorry for your loss bgerig. I am extending a cyber hug to you. There is a saying that goes, "Today is a Gift, That's why we call it the Present." It is a very true statement and everyone should live each day the best they can. God Bless

my condolences pal. God has it's own reasons why it happens. May your friend rest in peace. :)

I am sorry to hear about your friend. I beleive that we should indeed live life to the fullest and do the good you cna while you can. God will carry you through your grief and I am praying for you too.
