deat is a funny thing

Death is a funny thing. Not so much funny “ha-ha” but rather the kind of funny that says “I told you so”. The death of a loved one is inevitable in ones lifetime, it happens to everyone. I remember thinking about death a lot after my mother would tuck me in bed at night. I’d lie there and go through little scenarios in my mind. I’d imagine my mother dieing and how terrible …

…a phone call a few days later. My Grandmother had passed away. I drew my breath in, bit my lip and could feel the corners of my mouth curve downwards. I had finally experienced the loss that I saw in my mothers face so often while I hid my lack of compassion. My girlfriend walked over to me and hugged me. I couldn’t see her face. Death is a funny thing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Bibliography** none
