Hi.
You know this government sprawl about the fact that "Americans need to eat better," "Be Eco-Friendly," or "Don't be a litter bug." And while I think it gets monotonous sometimes. Maybe the EPA, CDC, FDA, and other of ABC's, maybe they are really just trying to help. But I realize that they can't do it alone. So I hope after this you might take one extra step to better your self or your world around you. Because your world is our world. I know I will.....
Ok, where that was leading to is...
In my school there is this really nice guy named Jordan Paganelli. He was in my geometry class second semester of last year and I had the privilege of getting to talk with him again at the beginning of this year. Well Jordan was diagnosed with cancer in Jan 2008. It went well for a while but not so much anymore. I find it very very very depressing for a 17 year old boy who was once a cross country star to be put into hospice. He has this extremely rare(only about 350 cases a year in the US (pop: 303,824,640)), aggressive cancer that dominates the soft tissue areas of the body. Well just so recently they found out that it had spread to his brain. :/ I just feel bad. I wouldn't even wish that on the worst people that come to mind. He had been so strong and so brave. And it is to be believed that his cancer was because of un-safe toxicity levels in military bases where his parents were stationed. (Just a note it was not here.) Who knew that playing at the playground when you were a kid would lead to cancer. :/
The world is so indirect with how it works. Its like fate has some secret thing planned and is just waiting for you to be mislead down some sunny, flowered path that suddenly turns into a haunted trail like some bad acid trip.
I just feel bad today. Like I want to pull some Green Mile stuff.
I've become a ton more appreciative of what I have today, and shall always keep his story in heart.
