death can come in the blink of an eye you can't see it comming when it comes from the sky health does'nt matter when it's your time to die death is lurking allways near by a wind, a wave, someones gun too much of a medicine even the sun a crash, a bite, a sexual encounter nothing can stop it not even cowards jealosy, hatred, and our own stupidity an accident, a robbery and all of natures furys so it's best to be ready when your time comes we all have to do it each and every one

Unfortunately, you learned this lesson the hard way when you lost April, John. We just never know when our time will come so it's important to share our love while we have the chance. Much love, Carolyn
