Digital storyteller, Photographic narrator, Hogwarts alum. In real life, I write things. I speak fluent sarcasm. I'm unintentionally funny. My favorite thing is food. Guac is life. I'm a fountain of the most random information. I'm pretty, only because it's weird to call oneself beautiful. I'm weird in all the good ways. I live in the greatest city on Earth. I was Sasha before Beyonce was schizophrenic. My life is stranger than fiction. But please, don't take my word for it. My pen is mightier than my sword. Instagram

Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. -Matthew 5:4
Death is a strange thing. It's crazy how someone can die and this whole life and everything that came with it is just gone. And you have a lifetime of memories but this person is gone as if they never existed. It's also crazy that someone can be gone and it feels like your world is standing still but everyone else's world keeps right on spinning.
I don't know what it's like to lose a father. And as much of a pain in the ass as mine is, I'm still thankful for that. But I do know what it feels like to lose someone very close and important to you. And I would never wish it on my worst enemy.
A few nights ago, a man passed away. I don't know anything about him other than his name, that he used to call me "Giggles" and that he fathered one of the most amazing people I know. As much as I don't really know anything about this man, I have a lot of love for his son and I'm hurting with him but I'm also afraid for him. Because I know that who he was before this loss is gone. Something has shifted and this void won't allow it to shift back. But I can say that things will get better. Sooner or later, they always do. In this case, it maybe wayyyy later but it will happen. Until then, we just have to pray without ceasing and take comfort in the fact that we can see our loved ones again one day.
