Friend of Mine – Makes Me Sad

Friend of mine
Has gone away
Like a light from yesterday
Lost in space
Somewhere they say
This friend of mine

---------

The last time I listened to this song, I was in a 3rd Storey office which overlooked a parking lot - on the East side of town. It must've been February. Because February makes me sad. And because that was the birth date of Michael - my first best friend. We spent every Summer together. But then he died. And I was young when he passed. And it didn't feel real. And I did not know how to feel when I knew it was real. And the last time I listened to this song I cried. And that was 2 years ago now.

This song makes me sad because now I am old enough. But I still don't know how to feel. And I know it is real.

I don't want him to be gone. This friend of mine. This my second childhood best friend to die.

But I don't want to keep him here either. Because he is where he wanted to be. He just left early. Unannounced. Which is just about right.

  2. He was among others in the company of God’s spirit and traveled a shorter path to His garden…

  3. At these times of loss, I love to remind people that “thor’s Mom will suck cock in hell.”

    After thor’s Mom died of breast cancer, the funniest shit Duuuh-dar and I did was mock thor’s Mom. I mean, how I laughed, Duuuuh-dar could stop crackin’ thor’s-Mom jokes either.

    We love to make fun of people who die. How about it, Bob Reed, you must have some ha-ha-ha for Eno’s friend! We roll shotgun, man, us dumb duckin’ Ghosters, you’n me, mange.

    How’d this hollistic sweat hound earther dude vote, Repub or Demo, that’s what’s life’s about, t-ballers yea!

    I think I might hate him.

  5. This kind of things happens as we move along the path of our lives. Rest easy knowing, as you said, he is where he really wanted to be…

    I know it’s tough for you, but God will giver you the strength to deal with this, and perhaps to be, in part, the blessing his family needs in their time of grief.

    Perhaps when this has all passed, we can further discuss what you know of the details; because I don’t understand the whole sweat lodge situation. But only after you’ve reconciled it all.

    I’ll pray for your pal, his family, and you and your as well at Mass tomorrow morning…

    All the best

  6. Thx Bob –

    And Tohr – your mother would be ashamed.

    But James is in the Big Drum Circle in the Sky. And he had no use for Dems or Repubs, if you must know.

  7. Yeah, whoever you are sockpuppeting JG, it;s a lame attempt at best…

    To start, JG and Darleen didn’t mock thir’s mom in the wake of her passing…

    Next, I don’t maliciously make fun of people who pass.

    And how anybody votes is not a simple measure of their worth or what life is all about.

    Your sockpuppet attempts are poor, your intent malicious, and your style ham handed and amateurish…

    • Uh, yeah, you do. Your little Ted Kennedy death rants were nothing short of the mark of classless scum. Did you think acting the part of asshole would make you popular within your wittle right-wingy hate’m circles? Yeah, o’course you did, that’s because you’re not man enough to be your own man, evidently you need a group to belong to, I guess. Must be a self-validation thing, who knows.

      To rebut your “start,” of course they did, you hopeless dingbat. A few months back there was some loon posting shit on Jeff’s board, what was said I have no idea. Hf made mention of it and looked over there and Jeff had deleted a bunch of posts, but, of course, not the one declaring my Mom sucks cock in hell. That’s how he rolls. He could’a just emailed me and asked if it was me posting, he has my email address. Hey, why bother deleting crap like that when your getting flipped a few bucks to be a right-wing hate stirrer. Bad for business! Haha. I’m not on his team, as you know, and when you’re given entirely to group think, whose team one is on means everything. I guess.

      Darleen is neanderthal white trash. It’s how she was raised. I guess. Hehe. Can you imagine the torture of having to admit to her being your Mom, surely that must be awkward.

      Unless you’re just putting in airs of decency, Bob, I suspect that you’ll have an epiphany soon enough. Maybe Michelle Obama’s Mom will get cancer, maybe Michelle herself, who knows, but it’ll be some sad affiar such as that. Then your buddies over at PW or Freeper or some other wingered hate site will start celebrating. You’ll say something to the contrary and they’ll call you out as a Marxist- Commie or worse, a nigger-lover. Maybe then you’ll start to put two and two together, maybe, who knows, since you currently find it so easy to hate on and lie about Obama, maybe you’ll just join in and cheer death and suffering upon those who ain’t in’m your group. Nothing decent about your repetitive lying and hating, Bob-o. It’s all rather a sad display.

  8. Enoch, my Brother:

    You know I’ll pray for you and your friend at Mass today.

    The older I get and the more I hurt, the more I have come to understand that it isn’t happiness we truly yearn for, but peace. The Peace that surpasses all, the Peace now experienced by your friend.
