i have no idea why on earth im still trying to write this, its the third time, the first and second times, i wronte really long posts, and poured my all into them, and my computer messed up, and both times i lost them..you have no idea how hurtful and annoying that is,its like its some kind of test to see how much more ill keep going_whatever

so basically yesterday, i thought i was going to die, no i was pretty sure, its like i was having signs(dont worry, im not off my rocker)this whole dying thing might of course have been prompted by the fact that i was reading chicken soup(those ofyou who havent read-i recommend!) and there were all these storied of people, like my age that died, and how their friends and family deal with the losses, but thats beside it

somehow, i never could register that it was possible that i would die so soon, like at this age, im fifteen for crying out loud, it was likei was untouchable by death, i never could accept it was possible, it just wast going to happen to me…but reading those stories yesterday, it really hit home, these people that died had felt the same, but thay did die, when they least expected it, funny though, for me, i wasnt scared, it was just this strange acceptance of the idea of death…you know, i just felt the sudden urge to call my mother and tell her i loved her, because we had had a fight earlier, then i called my grandparents, which i had somehow managed not to do for several months..dontknow why, but it just felt weird that i felt like i had to do those things all of a sudden..oh well

but you know, the whole idea of dying at this age really got me thinking, thinking about whats really important in life, (oh and this thought was greatly inspired by the stories in chicken soup), letme just ask this question, if you knew you were to die tomorrow, would you rather die, having made a positive change in somebodys life, having inspired somebody to be the best they can? or would you rather die not having touched anybody in any way? just having lived your life, and acheived your selfish ambitions? yea, i know me, too id rather die knowing ive touched somebody elses life, its hard to imagine that we are here to live just our lives, neglecting everyone else..come to think of, it, i think God use the whole death thing to wake me up, to highlight to me what is really important, to make me realize this for myself(yes, for myself, because we all know that we simply cannot learn from another persons mistakes, we usually are better of realizing for ourselves, then we see the point) and so ive decided to care, and to care, you really dont have to pull down the sky, a smile could turn someones day around, it could make the difference between life and death for somebody, somebody who wants to commit suicide might change their mind if showed some unexpected kindness, andit really costs nothing, but it gives those warm and fuzzies that make it worth living,and the best part, is that youre rewarded, the more love you spread, the more you get! so go out and spread the love! make it a point to be go out of your way to be nice to somebody that you would usually ignore, give up that seat for thatold lady, hold the door open for that girl with her hands full, help that old man cross the road..it costs nothing! and yet makes all the difference

i know there are people out there that start all these charities, and promote all these causes, but im new, and i dont really know where to step, but i trust whatever it is that got me thinking this way to guide me..and anybody that has tips..i want, no i take that back, need to hear them!!

remember, spread the LOVE!
