Unhappy Have you ever read the obituaries and

Read that a friend who you have not been in contact with died!

I don’t read the obituaries but my wife does daily.

It happened to us today (2nd time). One of my ushers at my wedding died (42). He is even the godfather of my son but we have not spoke in 4-5 years.

Life is a bummers sometimes and so is guilt

Well – My wife and I got married young and a lot of our friends never grew up. When I had my first kid – he was a crack head and we tried to distance ourselves some. We still kept in contact but it was not the same. He was doing better but it has been like 5 years since we talked.

At my wedding I had a best man and 3 ushers – only one still alive and all under 40

I just found out he was diagonosed with lung cancer (crack pipe to long) 3 weeks ago and went very fast

Honestly Jackson...distancing yourself was the best thing to do so try not to sweat it. I know alot of people I grew up with are either dead or in jail from the 50 pieces.



Glad to see you were able to quit smoking it and turn your life around. Nice job
