only the good go for no reason!
anyone who lives in Baden probably knew Harley Herner and his wife. Lastnight he and his wife were killed in a car accident on Highway 86. why did it have to happen to them? He was the sweetest old man ever! growing up i have so many memories with him. He came into see me at work every day and every day he had a new story and a new lesson for me to take in. He was so wise and he always gave the best advice.
This morning while i was at work and i looked at the clock i realised that it was 8:15. It was so weird. Harley has come in every day since Teddy's opened for his coffee at 7:00. It was so weird. I thought that it was just the weather. Maybe he was just going to stay at home because the roads are bad. It was almost ten when i heard the news. A lady from CTV came in and wanted to ask questions about Harley as they were doing a story on his life and his wife.
I thought i was going to be sick. my heart stopped i swear. how can this be happening? Why is it happening? Why them? why is it starting all over again?
i don't know what to do. What do i think? Who's next? what do i do? what do i say? How do i make this stop? how can i sleep at night? How do i live my life like a normal person when it just keeps starting over and over again? Why is it always the most wonderful, most lov ed people in the world who are taken away from us for no reason? There's no way of justifying why these things happen... that's why it's so hard i suppose. keep everyone so close and tell them that you care because it's so sudden that they can be gone forever.

Crystal,
It is no suprise that you are asking "why?" at a time like this. Why, I'm afraid, is a question that no one will ever be able to answer. Instead, you might ask yourself.. how. How can you make your life meaningful, so that when your time comes, as everyones does, you will be able to leave this world knowing that you lived your life to the fullest. People around us will come and go, because it is their time to go. No one stops it, no one prevents it, no one can forsee it. That my dear dear friend, is life. It is a hard pill to swallow, i know. I also know that my words will not soothe your broken heart right now, and they will not dry up all the tears; nor quiet the requiem for the loss. I do hope however that some day, close to now, you will be able to look at my words and find strength and no that, Life does go on. I wish peace on you.. --Sarah
