My friend died

View More Posts Ignore
I found out today that a girl I shared a bedroom with almost ten years ago was found laying in a ditch on Wed. I don't know how she died. The last time I saw her, she was living on the streets almost...and on drugs. That was about 6 or 7 years ago. I might have given her money, I don't remember.

It's so unreal to me. I can't believe she's gone. Life is so fucking short people. I don't want to just exist, I want to live.

" I'm so sorry for your loss.

You are so right when you say life is short and we need to live it rather than just exist in it. "
