Friday was really hard as it was the 4th aniversary of the passing of a close friend and lover.

I had been thinking a lot about what I should do in her memory. I thought that since most of us today have blogs, myspace pages, flickr and facebook pages, she should too. I tried to make an online presence for friends and family to come and share a thoughts, pictures and video. I’m starting with a static[ish] page but I have the funds to purchase a flash tempalte that I really think she would have loved. In making this site, I had one person in mind beside Aleisha. Her mom loved the site, and I’m sure she will love it even more when the flash site is up.

In four years I feel like I haven’t learned enough from this tradgedy. In retrospect of everything that I have done, seen and accomplished, nothing really means more than spending time with and loving your family and friends. Money, things and chemicals will make you feel better for a short while, but in the end it’s who you spend your time with in relation to “worldly” things that you will remember on your death day.

Take today and tell your mom, dad, best friend, whoever, that you love them and are glad to have them in your life. As we all know, and I have found out first hand: tomorrow is not promised.
