But they're supposed to live forever...

A student I taught during student-teaching was killed Friday in a car accident. This is the third time since I started teaching last year that I've experienced the death of students at our school, but this one was different. I had really gotten to know this kid, and I adored him. Whenever we got the news on Friday afternoon, I just sat in my room and sobbed. I can still tell you where he sat in the classroom, what he wanted to do with his life, and the quirky little things that stood out about him. 18 years old, and now his life is over. I need a job where you don't have to interact with or get to know people.

Oh, honey. I can't imagine that and hopefully, I'll never have to encounter it.

I love you.

I love you and am thinking about you. This is too many times that you've had to deal with something like this...

I do not know you personally, but I do understand how you feel. Death may be natural, but it is rarely understandable. Please accept my sympathy.
