R.I.P to my 1st period high school teacher mr. codi. The class was web design. I found out my teacher had died of a heart attack early in the morning. It was a shock and very weird sort of feeling. he's in his early 40's or so and although he was a bigger, chunkier guy, he always seemed healthy and fine and real jolly. He was a cool person. I can't believe he's gone. We found out by the principal announcing it over the intercom. Being in his class first period class and all, it was a real shock...because we saw a sub standing in, but i thought it he was just gone for the day...i didnt know he had died. RIP mr. codi...a friend and mentor to all

Wow, I totally can relate. One of my kindergarden teachers, Berta, passed away of cancer last year. It was terrible. Her daughter now interns at the school.
So I hope you aren't taking this super hard, as he would've wanted his legacy of joy to continue. Rest in peace, Mr. Codi, and I hope you enjoy all of your jolly paries with Freddie.
Much Love,

I know it's strange at first, but as you grow older, death becomes more frequent and easier to deal with. Then you die.

I found that a lot more people are passing away as I get older because when I get older other people become older as well, of course. I've done a lot of growing up in the past year because I am old enough now to realize the seriousness of things. My uncle was diagnosed with cancer last year (thank god he is better now) and that really made me think about life. I never had the chance to meet my mom's dad or brothers because they died of cancer. I remember riding in the car with my mom while chewing on some wintergreen gum. She told me that she didn't like wintergreen flavor, but she enjoyed the smell because it brought back memories of her father. My mom said that her dad would always had a wintergreen lifesaver in his mouth. I almost started to cry when she told me this, and I don't know why. A kid at my school was hit by a car last year and passed away. A few days later some kids were being rude to each other during science and my teacher said, "the reason why Marc was popular and why everybody wanted to be his friend was that he was never rude to anybody". I almost started to cry, but I didn't even know him. I think what made me cry was what she was saying and the fact that she was about to cry as well. A few weeks ago my aunt and uncle had to put their dog to sleep. I miss keegan, still. The list goes on and on. The point is I came to realize the affect of death and illness. I also realize the meaning of sadness because I'm in tears right now.

Awww. Don't cry, Beth. We all have had tough times and we all suffered from losses, but the best thing to do is to live through another day and maybe there will be something good in store for you. In a 1972 movie called "Snoopy Come Home", Charlie Brown once said: "No matter how bad things get, things will turn out good in the end." It's okay to cry because everyone has to have a good cry once in a while to get out whatever's bothering them. However, you mustn't let some things like that get to you because the best thing to do is to keep your chin up, try to be strong, and move on. Trust me, you're gonna be all right once the time passes.
