Bridgedette's Thoughts:
Yesterday, Nov. 24th, we attended a mass, hosted by the Knights of Columbus at Little Flower, to remember Popo. The Knights of Columbus presented a beautiful bible, blessed by the priest during the mass, for Larry's Grandma to keep. It was very moving to watch.
As I was watching the presentation of the Bible to Larry's Grandma, a wave of emotion came over me. To think that she survived the loss of the man she loved and is still going on with life, is something amazing to see. You see, I have another friend who lost her husband not too long ago, and is reacting very different to the loss. She has lost her love for life. When I knew her, she was this AMAZING, vibrant and loud woman...now she is just going though the motions and seems to have lost her ove for life. I hope that she finds herself again, it will take time, but I know that she can do it.
Its an intersting way how humans react to what life throws at them. I hope to be as strong as Larry's Grandma is. the strength I see in her is that old school values of "keep working, and keep living."
There is something to be said about the way today's generations view hardships. The values of hard work seem to have left the building, and enter the "I need it now." I hope that my generation can learn from the older generation and gain back that fighting spirit.
Bridgedette and Larry's life as it happens. 2 people who were lucky enough to cross paths and become Best Friends.
2 Random People
- Bridgedette and Larry's World
- San Antonio, Texas, United States
- We are the most random people you will meet. Sometimes we just like to stay at home and be comfortable and some times we like a good adventure. We both know for certain that we like to help those less fortunate than ourselves (hence why we both work in similar fields) and that we have a unique backgrounds. Larry is intelligent, calm, and humble. Some of his favorite things are traveling, Batman, watching basketball, and making friends with the neighborhood cats. Bridgedette is smart, friendly, and a go getter. Some of her favorite things are watching Matt Lauer on the TODAY Show in the morning, eating cheeps and learning about new things. We have been laughing together since 2008 and plan to do so for the rest of our lives.
