One of my best friends died
    #5527371 - 04/17/06 10:34 PM (17 years, 9 months ago)

3:00am Sunday morning...

my best friend from high school. charles. i hadn't talked with him until a couple months ago. we had plans to get together a couple weeks ago and something came up.

he was drinking with his brother and friends saturday night. they got really really drunk, and decided to swim a pond that bordered his apartment complex.

a guy that was swimming ahead of charles looked back... and he was gone.

they looked for him with the cops, and couldn't find him.

they found his body floating sunday morning.

we were supposed to hang out next weekend.

I too know what it feels like to lose a close friend.  I lost a friend in a drowning accident as well not even a year ago.  I'm very sorry to hear about that :undecided:

i know how you feel.  two of my friends and my grandma have died in the past year.  One in a drunken driving accident, and another by a 12 gauge shotgun to the dome, and my grandma from old age.  sorry to hear about your loss  :frown:

Having lost a best friend and a couple of good friends, all to cancer, I know how incredibly hard it can be. Nothing I can say carries much weight in this context but regardless, I hope you're doing okay and would be willing to listen to anything you might like to say, here or in PM's or whatever.

Here is an excerpt from Philip K. Dick's Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said, as posted by OMR:

"I remember once when I first smoked pot from a waterpipe rather than a joint. It, the smoke, was cool, and I didn't realize how much I had inhaled. All of a sudden I died. For a little instant, but several seconds long. The world, every sensation, including even the awareness of my own body, of even having a body, faded out. And it didn't like leave me in isolation in the usual sense because when you're alone in the usual sense you still have sense data coming in even if it's only from your own body. But even the darkness went away. Everything just ceased. Silence. Nothing. Alone...

...Anyhow, it wasn't like fainting; I didn't feel I was going to fall, because I had nothing to fall with, no body . . . and there was no down to fall toward. Everything, including myself, just expired. Like the last drop out of the bottle. And then, presently, they rolled the film again. The feature we call reality."

"Were you frightened about it?"

She nodded. "Consciouness of unconsciousness, if you dig what I mean. When we do die we won't feel it because that's what dying is, the loss of all that. So, for example, I'm not at all scared of dying anymore, not after that pot bad trip. But to grieve; it's to die and be alive at the same time. The most absolute, overpowering experience you can feel, therefore. Sometimes I swear we weren't constructed to go through such a thing; it's too much - your body damn near self-destructs with all that heaving and surging. But I want to feel grief. To have tears."

"Why?" He couldn't grasp it; to him it was something to be avoided. When you felt that you got the hell out fast.

"Grief reunites you with what you've lost. It's a merging; you go with the loved thing or person that's going away. In some fashion you split with yourself and accompany it, go part of the way with it on its journey. You follow it as far as you can go."

I feel for your loss.

Death is a part of life, and everyones got to go sometime. The sad part is none of us know when sometime is going to come. The happy part is that we dont have to fear it. Inside all of us lies the truth, however we may not be able to remember it. However I believe that after this life, we will RETURN to that place of truth, where there will no longer be desire, and your essential being will be completly fulfilled.

Your friend now knows complete fulfillment. We shouldnt grieve the loss of him, but rather celebrate his life knowing that although hes no longer with us on earth, he soul lives.

When my time comes, Id rather people throw a kegger than a funeral.
