It's so true that you never know when it's your time to go. I am going to try to never be angry or upset with someone I love without resolving it before I go to bed. I am so sad guys! =(
At my job something terrible happened yesterday. My boss's dad that came into my job all the time and used to own this place died in a plane crash. He was healthy and going strong even though he was older in age, he owned two companies at 86 years old.
Do you feel that you shouldn't be angry with your loved ones without straightening it out before you go to bed? Please keep this family in your prayers, it is the Williams family. =)

I'm so sorry for your loss. It would be great to settle everything before sunrise but sometimes it isn't to be. All I can do is try to settle things the best I can .

So there is no closure. I hope in time they will tell you how the plane crashed. I'm so sorry.

Thank you. I will always settle things. This was so unexpected and tragic. It still doesn't seem real to me. I am absolutely heart broken. The family had no time to say goodbye to him. They never saw this coming. He was a pilot, he had been a pilot for most of his life. There are no answers, no one knows why the plane crashed... =(

When we experience the loss of someone close, it reminds us of our mortality and how limited our time is on this planet. Best to enjoy our loved one's before it is too late and not waste time. Good philosophy to not go to bed upset with a loved one since we never know if we will wake up tomorrow morning.

Even though it can be shocking and scary, we need to remember that it is part of living and as a result cannot live our lives stressed out about it. Like you say, there are no guarantees and we simply need to take one day at a time, enjoying each moment to its fullest and not worrying about it.

I am sure when this situation happened, it was one that no one really expected. Especially when the person is in good Health, but in reality you do never know when the last breath you will breathe is. I always make sure to let my husband know that I Love him and never try to go to bed mad. Unfortunately I have family members who still seem to be upset with me and almost everyone else in the family no matter how many times someone tries to apologize. Hope things have straightened out there now.

Hello, I now undestand what you are saying, recently, I have lost a cherrished brother, after a long fight with cancer, and, passing through this experience,and situation makes you value even more all the things that you have, and realize, that nothing is so small, when coming from a beloved one, as not to value it.

I'm sorry for your loss also. That is so sad. This was so unexpected, it just didn't seem real. My job seemed so eery and had a very strange feeling yesterday. I just knew something bad happened before I even really found out. I am pretty close to my boss. It's a small company, were like a small family. It hit me really hard. There's only 5 of us that work there so we are all really close. I feel terrible for my boss and my co-worker because they lost a dad and their grandfather. =(

I am actually the type that could never go to bed when I've just had a quarrel with somebody. I would pretty much prefer that I resolve right away a misunderstanding, as I feel really terrible when I go to bed.
It is sad to hear somebody being taken when they are still young and active. My thoughts are with the family.

Thank you.

One should never ever be angry with loved ones. because importance of anything is known in its absence. Once those people are not around you any more then you will repent those moments when you were angry with them.
