Those things, if they were there, and left undealt with, can contribute to all kinds of ill effects. <BR/><BR/>Just because someone looks perfectly competent and sunny on the outside does not mean things are peachy. Our bodies don't lie. <BR/><BR/>I may not believe in fate, but I do believe we are eternal. I believe your friend is okay, and I'm sorry for your loss.Michelle O'Neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03221354521123541601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1630883680904179650.post-77506082521223011032008-05-13T20:44:00.000-05:002008-05-13T20:44:00.000-05:00No, we never know... all we can do is live. I thi...No, we never know... all we can do is live. I think some are just pre-disposed, genetically. I'm not sure that I will run out and have the thing done, however... sometimes we just don't want to know things... we all have to go, sometime... in some kind of way. Choose the poison. Then again, we can't really choose, can we? Don't think we can all die happily in our sleep. Sometimes our living and breathing is not so important as our dying... and what we leave behind. I'm sorry.Shimmerringshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11889345175260200888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1630883680904179650.post-323446408592021882008-05-13T20:05:00.000-05:002008-05-13T20:05:00.000-05:00I'm sorry for your loss.

A somber but necessary reminder.

Everything is bad for you, it seems, and it would be impossible and somewhat bizarre to live your whole life only with the aim of putting off death. <BR/><BR/>PussGlamourpusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01450175254756849062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1630883680904179650.post-42322578315753080432008-05-12T21:25:00.000-05:002008-05-12T21:25:00.000-05:00I am so very sorry to hear of Ann's death but glad...I am so very sorry to hear of Ann's death but glad her ordeal is now over.<BR/><BR/>And you're so right--unhappiness drowns out more frightening thoughts and sounds. Still, we surely can find better things to fill our hearts and minds.<BR/><BR/>jAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
