[QUOTE="Zero2Cool, post: 129459, member: 43"] I admit, when I first read this, I was thinking wtf is his problem? Or something to that affect. Then, after remembering when a long time friend of mine, Matt took his life the day before my 18th birthday I recalled how I didn't want to attend either. I don't handle funerals or wakes that well. My boss wouldn't let me have the day off. What a jerk huh? The wake was held jus two blocks from where I worked. When the wake started I kept starring at my watch and finally went to the Asst Mgr that I was done, quitting and going to the wake. He thought I should have left, but said not to quit. So I left. I went to the wake. I couldn't get in right away, all the preppy uppity girls from school were there grabbing me an huggin me an crying as if they lost their best friend. Matt was a great guy, but they didn't give him his due while he was on this planet and it confused me that they did after he was gone. I went in, finally. I was strong, I kept my composure through the whole thing. Then I seen all sorts of pictures on on a huge billboard thing and I completely lost it like a little school girl who got kicked in the shin. I haven't been to a funeral or wake since and I don't plan on ever attending one again. Not even my own. With that experience, I can kind of see why he wouldn't attend. Having a friend die in your arms has to be hard as it is. My one main hope for the man, is he doesn't dillude himself with alcohol like what happens with many people in this same situation. I hope Javon is on the right path an continues it. [/QUOTE]
