You live only once

Kelvin, Jill's husband of nearly 4 years, was shot dead today. I am at a loss for words. There's shock, disbelief, then that sudden realization of how devastating this all is for his loved ones. I wasn't close to him but I knew him well enough to see him as a loving and supporting husband to jill and a cool and hands on dad to nate. what words can you tell jill? They should've had a lifetime together yet... and nate should grow up with a father. These things you hear in the news and see on movies... But never ever expect to happen to friends. It's surreal-- like a bad dream which you can't escape. And I cannot imagine Jill's grief and despair. I pray for Jill- strength and faith in these difficult trying times. I pray for nate who will never meet his dad- that he will not feel abandoned or robbed and find his support from the rest of his family and from the Father. For kelvin's parents, strength too. And this triggers a point of reflection how fleeting life is. How much love have you shared? why do I spend time in negativity and whining, and not focus on making my time count.
