late last night, i got a rare missed call followed by a text from a friend saying “call me when you get this.” \u00a0when i checked it at 3:30am when i got up, i already knew something was terribly wrong. \u00a0i called him back and he broke the bad news to me. \u00a0tearing up, i was told that one of our best friends suddenly passed away. \u00a0a friend that has been a huge impact in our lives, a friend that made us laugh so hard that our stomachs would hurt, and a friend that we shared so many precious memories since our college days. \u00a0i took to the ocean in the morning, thinking about him all day long, and thinking about the good times. \u00a0sadness and reality hit when i pulled up a photo of him on my iPhone. \u00a0i choked up and teared, i had a sharp pain in my heart, and i’m once again, i’m heartbroken. \u00a0loosing so many special people suddenly in this past year has been really hard on me. \u00a0i know that’s the circle of life, but it still hurts. \u00a0yes i would have loved to have a last drink with him, a last laugh with him, and a last memory with him, but i couldn’t. \u00a0all i can do now is cherish the precious memories we had and remember the happiness he brought to all of us. \u00a0once again, the message of “life is short” is flashing more than ever. \u00a0so if you’re not enjoying life to the fullest and appreciating each breath of air, it’s never to late to start. \u00a0everything in life is suddenly 10x more important than it’s ever been to me. \u00a0please keep healthy and happy…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
