It’s so hard to focus after the loss of my dear family, my other brother from another brother. It’s painful for me to think, that my homie is gone. It’s painful for me to think of how short his life was cut. It’s painful to think of how he has left 3 young children and how he has left his young wife diagnosed with a terminal cancer to battle this without him.
It’s shocking to think that in Vegas, I was having the time of my life celebrating my brother’s wedding, and Mike was there with his family partying it up with us. And now, just one week later he is instantly gone…….a mere memory of what was….a void of what will become of his family.
Losing someone close to our family and friends was a reality check for us all. It made me realize that I should tell my children that I love them EVERYDAY several times a day. It made me realize that I should value every interaction I have with other people. It’s also a reality check that our time here on earth is unknown and very short in comparison to eternity. There is a bigger picture, and it is definitely not here on earth.
Love one another just as Christ loved us. Honor your parents. Release the hate. Forgive anyone whom has hurt you or betrayed you. Live life to its fullest, and not for selfish reasons. Treasure your children, your loved ones, your family and friends.
R.I.P. Mike. You will be sorely missed. Love ya bro…
