Appreciation...R.I.P

This is totally not beauty related, but I thought I'd post it anyways because it is really a big issue of matter.

Yesterday, I lost one of my childhood friends that I have known since 5th grade to a drunk driver. She was a great person who helped so many people. She was also a very independent person and she never gave up on her dreams. I'm going to miss her a lot but I know she's in a better place now watching over all her loved ones.

It's true when people say you don't know how to truly appreciate someone or miss someone until they are truly gone. The reason why I posted this is because I want you all to learn to appreciate the people around you every minute and every second because you never know at an instant who will be taken away from you forever. I know a lot of people see these things happen on the news but in their minds they always say "That will never happen to me or the people I know", but IT CAN. You never know and when it does happen it will just all feel too surreal.

Go tell your loved ones to not drink and drive, and be careful when driving late at night. Go tell your loved ones that you do indeed love them. Try to keep in contact with all the people you care about. Don't settle for anything less. It's better to just say a simple"hi, how are you doing?" once in awhile than to not say anything at all. Don't expect you will have all the time in the world to say things. It's not that hard. Just do it, and I guarantee you won't regret it.
