This week’s post leaves us with a lot of room for creativity. I'm not really sure what to write about. I thought about some things that interest me like snowboarding or drawing but what I find myself consumed by recently is the death of a close friend of mine. She passed away about two months ago and it’s really taken a toll but I’ve learned a lot since her death. She died in a freak car accident on her way to her mom’s boyfriend’s house. There was never an explanation on how she actually passed. I've learned how to cope with such a severe lost, how to pick up the pieces and move on and how to let her live on. So I thought that I would do all these things with this post. I have learned that the best way to cope with such a freak accident is to talk. This doesn’t mean just saying how sad it is and how devastated everyone that was close to her feels, it means sharing with the people that did and didn't know her how crazy and loud and full of life Lauren always was, how her voice would carry through the halls of our high school so everyone could know how she really felt about something. At first we all felt stuck, we didn’t want to leave Cromwell where we were surrounded by our friends and family. However I learned that dwelling on the sadness that Cromwell ways surrounded by only makes it worse. By leaving and coming to school I got a chance to breath. So what is there to learn from all of this. The bottom line is that you just need to move on from the sadness because if you don’t it is just draining and completely unhealthy.
