Last week a young friend shared a year of journals she did eight years prior when her 19 year old brother was killed in a traffic accident. As one could imagine at the tender age of 21 she struggled with God, faith, anger, deep pain, torment over her family's pain as well as friendship, romance, during this trial in her life. With her sharing comes insight into the mind of this intelligent and accomplished young person. The overwhelming grief a family goes through during this type of loss.
Today she is fine and I am so grateful for the deep trust to share such private and riveting thoughts. The take away for me is observing young men go speeding through our neighborhood without a thought about the danger they could bring on themselves, let alone the grief of a family.
