Love

I was reminded of mortality today.  Today I learned of the death of one of my friends, a theatre student where I attended undergraduate college.  We were not particularly close, but I respected him as an artist and I loved him as a friend and as a person.

I won’t relate the details I know; I don’t feel we should go into that morbidity nor do I think it necessary.  Instead, I write you this to ask you, when you are with your friends and family, or even when you are just thinking of them, remember that you love them.  You don’t need to express it, though you certainly can, but do it because a few more thoughts about love are always needed in this world.  Life is a beautiful thing, but also fragile.  Love, however, is a large part of what makes this delicate existence beautiful, so please, feel it.

I love you. Thank you.
