I can't even explain the feeling I get when one of my friends never even made it to their 18th birthday. It also amazes me that even in the 17 years you were here you accomplished so much, much more than I could have in my 20 years. Now I've accepted that this world is all but fair. The good really do die young and I spend every day and night wishing it were me instead of you.
It's weird how much you learn from someone once they're gone. I like to think I learned how to embrace life now. How to love everyone and everything because once it's gone, everything changes. Everything.
Today would have been your 20th birthday. I miss you Laurie. Happy Birthday.
