How many family members can you lose in 1 year? I assume the most common answer is none, but for me, I lost 5 major points in my life in 4 months. So far 2016 wasn’t my year. My beautiful Auntie Brenda was 71 years old; she was the matriarch of the family, she really took a toll on my life. I remember when we threw her a surprise birthday party because she just beat breast cancer. She don’t like surprises, and when we said surprise, she likely ran out. I’ll explain more lately, but the whole point is that I like to think that as long as you have memories of your loved ones, they are still here with you. What I learned was don’t take life or anyone for granted.
I’m going to start with the two people that dies first; …show more content…
He died a month after my Uncle Harold and he didn’t even know that he had brain cancer until it was too late. They said that it was Stage 4 and there was absolutely no chance of him surviving.

Cousin Calvin was like a second father because he said if I ever needed to talk to him I can. I never talked about anything deep with him because he was the opposite of emotional. It was insane because he father died from brain Cancer and His mother Survived breast cancer. She flew down there just in time to see her baby until he was out of it. My cousin P-5, I never knew his real name, was just a friend of my step-father Tony. I never really got to know him, but he was cool when we sit and talk with each other. He died from a terrible liver from drinking too much. He knew he had a terrible liver and steady drinking, I’m not saying he deserved it, but I’m saying that if he knew he had a terrible liver why didn’t stop drinking. Many people do things and I question why, but that’s something that God can only …show more content…
You never know when your time is up and you never know if that’s the last time you see that person. Don’t assume that the person you love will be here forever because eventually everyone has to die. My mother said never to be mad at God and never question God so I need do what she says. She says one day you’re here and the next day you’re not so don’t ever take life for granted. It funny that one day you’re here and the next they putting you in a box, 6 feet under the ground, but God works in mysterious ways. I learned that life moves so fast that you don’t have enough time to enjoy everyone you love and that’s crazy. For a long time I thought God created love ones so they can die and you can hurt, but now I learned that he put people in your life so that you can learn a lesson or two. To be honest, sometime I don’t see the reason for living because I believe that all humans are spirits in a body. But, there is reason living, to show the world who you are and to make someone else life better because you decided to play a part in their
