Ecclesiastes 1:1-2

GOOD night, GOOD GOOD night. Thats all i have to share about that one... Well i am off for the weekend for a very EXTREMELY hard weekend:( I have to say good bye to my sweet great uncle Barney. He is my papaws baby brother. He was diagnosed with a terminal disease two years ago and then had an incident about 2 weeks ago and then yesterday at 1:00 they took him off life support. I am very apposed to this but hey.. it wasn't really my call i guess. He is the first of the "king legacy" to go. There are five kids in my grandpa's family and i have been so extremely blessed to be around these amazing people. I love every single one of them and they have proved their love and compassion to me time after time. They act the way family is SUPPOSED to act and call to check on you every once in a while. IT will be SOO hard on my Papaw because he took care of and raised all of his siblings because his father was an abusive, alcoholic, war veteran who got married at 15 and had 5 children by 23. They had such a hard life in such a hard time therefore it created such an extreme bond that I hope i at least have one bond in my life that even comes close to comparing. I don't do well with funerals and haven't even close to begin to come to terms with losing him. I just saw him last christmas. He looked amazing and was so happy to have his sweet grand daughters living with him, now he is gone from this earth forever. It will definitely be a healing process. I don't hope i ever have to feel what his wonderful wife Sharon is feeling right now. They were sweethearts all the way back to first grade. They were each others first and only. "A good name is better than fine perfume, and the day of death better than the day of birth. It is better to go to a house of mourning than to go to a house of feasting, for death is the destiny of every man, the living should take this to heart" This verse has already helped me start to come to terms with things. We should stop being selfish and realize how much better off he is right now. In a way.. I am jealous, he is happier and feeling so much better than we are right now he should be mourning for us really.
