Life is so busy. We go, we go, we go and we never stop to just sit and think about what’s going on in life.

I was at work today and decided to snoop around facebook for a bit to break the monotony of the day. I came across a group dedicated to a middle and high school friend who took his own life a month ago. When I first heard the news, it was shocking, but of course in life you get news of something one day and then the next moment something else pops up you have to deal with. I never got time to just sit and reflect on what happened. When I came across this group on facebook, my friend’s father posted a beautiful poem on the facebook group. Reading through that poem opened my eyes. His mother, his father, his grandmother, his grandfather, his uncle, his aunt, his cousins…they were all affected by this devastating lost. They can’t just move it to the back of their minds and keep working - that is a life-altering event. Those family members will continue to rack their brains and think of what they could have done to help Blake. I just pray that their family makes it through the tough times.

Well, with that said, everything else just seems mundane, but here’s a little update. I went to Spring Break in Daytona, graduated from college in May, moved to Savannah in June and am now working at Clear Channel Radio. I’m on air overnights during the week and weekends on KISSFM. During the day, I do a lot of behind the scenes work on the programming side for the radio stations in our cluster. Right now, life is at another starting point. It’s a little slow and not what I expected, but that’s life. I’m getting adjusting to the working world and getting use to working from 10am until 7pm everyday.
That’s it for now.
