As some of you may or may not know, two years ago today my friend Dana died after being hit by a car near our school. There aren’t enough words to say what all of us who knew her want to say. Dana taught me how to embrace the people I care about in all their wonderful and not wonderful-ness. She loved her family and friends in all their awkwardness and was completely beautiful, even with her ability to make disgusting faces.
Both Dana’s life and her death helped me learn what is important and what really isn’t important when it comes down to it. Today, please think of Dana and her family, along with those families that you know that have lost someone. Try to stay focused on who you really want to spend your time with, and embrace people for all that they are – not just the parts you like :) Most importantly, make a lot of jokes.
