it Never To Helps To Hear That Things Will Be Okay

A senior girl died yesterday, from my school district. I didn't know her, never met her. I can't even imagine what these students are feeling. She was eighteen years old, just eighteen. We graduate in three months. This is supposed to be one of the best times of our lives, the end of senior year. And now, this girl...she'll never go to her senior prom, never go to graduation, never go to college, never have all the experiences that I complain about. I feel so guilty for complaining about college and school and prom when I am so lucky to be breathing right now. I think it's time to start realizing that no one is entitled to a long life, no one is entitled to life at all. This could be the end, so don't waste it. I wish that the students of this school didn't have to mourn yet another death, and I wish there was something that could be said or done to help the people I know that are hurting over this...but there isn't. I really don't know what else to say.
