Here's to you, God

Dear God,
I've heard so much about Jet Travolta (sp?) and his death. Its all over the news. He was only 16, he was younger than me. It always freaks me out a little bit when someone younger than me dies. Not really sure why, maybe the fact that it could have happened to me? So sure, I don't have random seizures and all... but anything could happen. I could get in a car accident, my heart could stop beating, etc. Everything is precious, thank You God for letting me have this day. Thank You for letting me have all of the previous days of my life.
Its so sad knowing that his (Jet) life is over. However, it makes me sad knowing any life is over. So sure, I know, they get to come be with You. Lucky them, huh? But it still tends to make me sad. He won't get the opportunity to grow up, to get married, to have children, and to grow old. Yes, I know he will be happier up in Heaven with You... But it still makes me sad. I can't wait to do all of these things, and it breaks my heart knowing he won't ever have the chance to do so.
I remember on the drive up to Columbus, U2 (yes, I know, I'm lame) played on my ipod, their song Beautiful Day, and I rolled down my windows (going 65 mph, mind you) and the wind was blowing through my hair, and as I took in everything, I could feel You there. You're amazing, You really are. Little moments like that make me realize that I'm so greatful to know You. Thank You for everything You've ever given me, God. And thank You for everything I will recieve in the future. Thank You for every single breath I take, and for helping me through the harder parts in life. If I didn't have You, I'd never have made it this far.
You're amazing, and I love You. Just wanted You to know that, God. Even though You already knew that. Just figured I'd put that in writing... It works out better that way. :P
love, me.
