Recently, the remains of a young girl were found not far from where I live. About two weeks ago, some young children were playing in the woods by the lake when they found the bones. Naturally, the police were called and from then until last night, their vans, cars and CCTV units have been parked along the NSL road. News came out about a day after they were found, and forensics suspected it to be a 14 year old girl. Since then, new light has been shed on her identity. She was a local girl, 19 years of age, which is my age, not 14. She had a young child and her whole life ahead of her. To think that such a diabolical thing has happened in my home town is unbelievable.
Since this has happened, it has made me realise that it doesn't matter how old you are, you need to grab life by the nuts, and say: 'I'm going to live you until you're spent.' Which in some cases, is easier said than done.
Make your dreams a reality. Dreams don't come true, they stay dreams. Put them into action, and work to achieve what you want to achieve. At least then you can say that you've lived your life, not sat indoors and watched it pass by with everyone else.
So R.I.P young woman, and may the afterlife treat you a damn sight better than this one did.
