Today you would have been 28. That's so strange to me. We met about 11 years ago. Now I'm remarried to a great man, we own our first home together and i'm in school. Life is great. It makes me wonder how your life would be right now....
I imagine that you would have grown into a church going man. And that your faith would have helped you keep clean of your addiction. I picture that somewhere along the way you met a beautiful woman that would love you and you her, the way that it was always meant to be. I picture you with a cute little family. I see you as a drug counselor in a youth facility, maybe. You would go skiing and hiking with your little family on the weekends and have Sunday dinner at your parent's place. You and I would be friends. Life would be good.
But today you are spending your 28th birthday somewhere else, away from all of us down on earth that love you. I was going to visit your grave today but as life goes I couldn't make it. I felt you in my heart on my run today. I felt you from the moment I woke up. I miss you and I love you. I hope that where ever you are that your birthday was filled with love....
