Yesterday, my cousin who I lived with all of last year died instantly of a massive coronary embolism while running with his dogs through the woods that he grew up in. The condition that he was born with is totally symptom free and untreatable. He/We didn't realize it, but he was just a walking time bomb and was lucky to live as long as he did (he was 21). My uncle found him face down in the dirt on his favorite cross-country trail with the dogs still protecting him some 6 hours after his passing.

Basically, this situation made me realize the fleeting moment that we call life. Its easy to get caught up in the material world and bicker with each other about who has the bigger turbo or what have you ;) I just wanted to tell you guys to live every day like its your last, because you never know when the end will come. Use every day to its fullest and greatest purpose.

Sorry to hear Greyson. Its unfortuate that it takes a person thats close to you to die to put you back into check with reality. I got more to say to this, but I gotta run to my Grandmas, on a tight time schedule here.

Happy Thanksgiving guys!

Sorry to hear that man. I had a close friend that went to my school have an anneurism at the movie theater and died on the way to the hospital. Those kind of things are really scary because it came from nowhere with no warning signs or anything. These situations definately give us the reality check that everyone needs at one point or another in their life.
