Having gone all day Sunday without hearing about the Washington Twp. Senior who died in a car crash late Saturday night, has left my heart in an ache. First off, my thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends who she has left behind. It is hard to think that in one moment, you have everyone around you that you love and in an instant, they are taken from you. After watching the video posted of the vigil that was held for her on Sunday, I was able to see firsthand the pain that those individuals were going through. It hurt me just to watch it; I can only imagine what type of real pain the friends and family have to endure.
Being a high school senior myself, I have a feeling of accomplishment and readiness for that next step in my life. I have come so far in these past 4 years and I have confidence inside me when I look ahead to the new chapter I will be starting this summer. To think that this was all taken away from a senior just like me is unimaginable. Her dreams and goals she has built up to this point, her success and readiness for that next step, all taken away in that instant. I cannot even wrap my head around this. For someone who has come so far in her life and to have built up all that has become her, it is beyond anyone’s thoughts that it could all just be taken away. She came so close to that new chapter. However, that new chapter is just going to be written differently than what was expected.
