Worlds Turned Upside Down

I woke up today to a text from a friend. It was a shocking, nearly unbelievable and incomprehensible bit of news. One of my best friends from high school and someone whom I am still good friends with, has had her world turned upside down. The love of her life, and father of her little baby has been taken from this world. I don't know how he passed away but I do know that at age 22 it is the most unexpected, most undeserved act of life. 

To love someone is truly unselfish. Giving someone your heart, your life, your love is such a dangerous and scary thing but so worth it. She was able to spend a part of her life with someone who loved her more than anything, gave her a beautiful baby boy, and who now will be watching over her from the skies. Please pray for her. Pray for her baby. Pray for her comfort.
