January 25

My best friend from childhood died last year. Today is his birthday. When I heard about his passing (we lost touch years ago), I took out a photo of us at his wedding. It was a picture of his groomsmen (including me) and him. I thought about that night and what it would have been like if someone from the future tapped him on the shoulder on one of the happiest days of his life and said, "hey buddy, hate to break the news, but you've only got another 21 years left." His life was more than half over and he did not even know it.
