loTEK911, it's tough losing people, even if they were only in your heart and thoughts instead of your day to day. When I graduated from High School in '62, Viet Nam was just coming to a boil and I lost a dozen schoolmates over the next couple years. I was very surprised how the deaths of people I hadn't seen since graduation....in truth some I didn't even like.... affected me deeply.
That said, the ones in recent years have been harder. I found out recently the one guy I really liked at work...could talk to and trusted implicitly ....will be dead within a year...maybe weeks.

Yeah, that's when you look at your own life and regret some of what you feel was wasted time. But maybe it wasn't wasted if it kept you happy and sane at the time. So don't be too hard on yourself, you're doing ok.

Maybe your video should be replaced with
