Disney Wonder Sept 3-7, 2006 Part 2

[JLSE50]

This doesn't really have anything to do with anything..
Someone sent me a message to a "tribute" site of a friend of mine that died in December. I think I told you guys about it when I came back from Disney. He died in a car wreck on his way back from UofRichmond for Christmas. He went to high school with me and lived down the street for the past 9 years.. so it was a bit of a shock. He was a great guy.

I get upset when people do things like this, though, sometimes because it drudges up old feelings and I think it almost hurts people in their effort to cope with it.
However...
I listened to the song on the site and realized it was written by a resident of our town. If I recall, the man is a Youth Pastor (And I'm fairly certain he's a policeman as well)

And now I want to share it because it was written specifically for Ryan.. who is in the young man in the picture on the site.
I think the song is beautiful.
I suppose I'm biased. But.. still.

Thanks for sharing.
I think it is always hard knowning when to mention a great loss and when not to, but I lean toward mentioning. Maybe it makes the family or friends sad when they weren't before, but they might have been thinking "no one remembers but me" so if I mention him, then they know they are not the only one missing him.
Grief shared is less heavy.

OH great, now that song will be stuck in my head as I waltz upstairs...

Sorry

Sorry

I thought you went to bed.

OMGosh, I typed as fast as I could and my fingers kept thinking I think I can, I think I can, but then my computer/ DIS server went bezerk! Either that or you guys have to give me a huge lead time to type some thing in. Lisa was smart, she just used smilies.

dang that 40 second rule.

...not smiles...it was HEARTS....

I think I might be able to afford that... but if you think I'm supplying the cups, you're just crazy!

Cups are free at the beverage station

Like the wind!

SUGASWIM: Did you find those boots at Target? How did they look? How expensive? hard to pack? Feminine or masculine or either?

I know they're free...

I'm a DIS'er!

Hope I did not insult you then. But when you said you were not paying for the cups I took you seriously. I don't "get" teasing very well inspite of (or because of???) the fact that my Dad was a big tease.

Not me...not yet...

DH and I are watching Rescue Me.... my friend rented the last two seasons from Netflix and we're trying to catch up.

Anyone ever see it? It's a wild show!

 

[taeja71]

Nope, you didn't.
It's hard to pick up on teasing online sometimes anyway

 

[LCTsMom]

Okay NOW I'm saying good night. Those of you who are still here, have a great night. Catch you in a few.........

 

[Blackunicorn]

OMGosh! when did that online coupon expire for the bracelets?

Tae Ja, not until August. Follow the link in my signature.

Glad you are OK with it PIECEY--you are right, teasing does not translate in type especially if you don't "get it" verbally.

Nighty night--off to my waterbed--like sleeping on a cloud.
