19/5/13 16:36Today I found out that someone that I work with died in a car wreck last night.
I mean I didn't know this person as well as I would of wanted to and yet I realize that I'll never truly get to know this person at all.. that all the times that I could of just popped over to say hi, I didn't.. and there's nothing that tastes quite as bitter as regret.
And it is funny because Stalcup and I were just talking about her and about how I admired her energy and wanted to get her onto Kulture Krew to serve a term. Now she never will do a great many things, she was so young and full of energy. She had the ability to light up the room by walking into it. I always thought she was awesome but she worked in a different department then me so we really didn't get to talk.
However one of the memories I cherish is of me landing some new reciepts by the dock. She grabs me and goes "Nia Nia Nia!" and then she steers me toward the doors where there is the most gorgeous sunset, all orange and stuff. And she says "I wanted to share this with you, Nia" and it really sort of touched me and made my day.
Human life is fragile, so you really have to make the most of every day, of every opportunity.
Her family is in my prayers and thoughts and she's probably right now doing something silly up there, like instigating a inter-heaven water balloon fight, or something. Oh the hijinks.
I will miss her light.
