Sometimes it is so hard to express sadness when you feel that you dont really have that much right to be sad about something... Its a difficult feeling to deal with... Only met the man once, but he really was the only one I talked to that entire party. I guess things work out that ways sometimes... I got to know him before his life ended at least for a bit. But still, I dont know how to be...how to act. Glad I knew him but sad that my kids (someday...) never will. He was so... Neat. Nice to talk to, made me feel at ease. And very fun! Made me laugh, made me smile... and I will miss him. Today, finally putting what happened right in front of me really made me sad. I knew what happened before, but it wasnt really real. And to think, he might not even have a clue who I am... But I knew him and wish I could have gotten to know him better.
