21 years ago today...

i lost my best friend and the first girl i ever loved in a tragic car accident.

that event was why i started to drink and do drugs. i've struggled for alot of years over that day. i was just 17 when i watched her take her last breath.

for a long time i thought i was gonna die from a broken heart....i almost did.

Now, almost 2 years sober, i find myself finally doing what she asked me to do on her last day alive. Just to remember her and smile about all of the good memories.

That took alot of work to do, but I have a good life now.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Rest with God, Marie.

(((Bulldog))) - what an awesome tribute to (((Marie))). Pretty sure she has been watching over you and has a big smile on her face, and is very proud of you.

Hugs and prayers,

Amy

I'm sorry you've had such a tragedy to overcome. You're honoring your friends memory by living the best life you can. They would never have wanted you to stay stuck in the past.

Thank you for sharing this touching memory - may you continue to be at peace and have hope in your life.
