A few days ago a girl I went to middle school with passed away from being in a tragic car accident. Now I can't say me and this girl were best buds or even friends in general in middle school. We were involved in different things so we weren't  really in the same friend circles.  I see all my friends posting stuff about her and on her facebook wall. So naturally I went and read through some of the posts to see what my friends were writing about her and I came across the post her boyfriend left and I lost it. It wasn't some long drawn out post, it was only one sentence, but it spoke so much. I felt sick to my stomach.
WE'RE SO YOUNG. Things happen to people, and they leave us. Just like that. I think I freaked because I honestly don't know what I'd do with myself if I ever lost my boyfriend (or anyone I'm close to for that matter). People are stupid if they think "oh, you're too young nothing could ever happen, you've got a while to live" or "you're too young to be in love or know what love is."  granted, there are plenty of foolish people my age when it comes to knowing what love is ..           there's so many different types of love, and I think every person has their own.     Don't get me wrong, I'd be a mess if anything happened to my family .. but this girl's boyfriend's wall post is what shook me, so that's immediately what I connected to.
I didn't even "know" these two people but their love was so simple and beautiful and I could even see that just as an onlooker and these kids are my age.      There's no such thing as overusing the words " I love you" or  publicly showing the world how much you care about another person. If anything ever happened to them it may be too late for you to do those things.
Tell your loved ones you love them today; whether it be your significant other, your best friend, or your family
Let 'em know
