Unexpected Experiences

Before my typical rant post, I wanted to start this one off by telling my families allum (all of them) I love them.  That includes everyone under the sun from my siblings to my 13^th removed cousins lol.  Even Faith, but yall better watch your man when she’s around kmsl (just jokes; “Soul Food” reference). Cannot wait to link up with each of you guys and just have some great times.

Now on with the show. One thing that childhood or adulthood never really prepares you for is an unexpected experience like death or funeral.  As a child, I never really understood what was happening and just knew people around me were sad.  I had close friends & relatives who lost someone close at a young age and neither of us really knew how to handle that situation.  Well, here I am an adult and still really face the same situations.  I know death is a part of life; however, it still bothers me.  The main difference nowadays is that I must remain strong for the generation behind me just like the one before me did.  It is really a hard pill to swallow because you always feel like that person had more time.  The best thing you can do is remember the memories of that individual and keep their legacy going.  For example, my Grandpa Sam, I love him to death, but he was the pettiest man alive lol.  That trait is one I have picked up on and mastered lol.  Ooowee I got some stuff to tell you PaPa!!!   I think it’s a tie this topic: Adulthood & Childhood both sucked!!

P.S. - Not all unexpected experiences are bad.  I like finding money on the ground lol.  Blessings are unexpected too!!
