A(n) (rumoured) affair and A(n) (untimely) death

Just got back from a funeral service…

A 7 year old child is motherless now. A father looked lost. Life is short. There is definitely no good time to die!

So, live, we must!

For the last couple of weeks, life has been crazy with Hans' and Craigley's insecurities about Momley and Greek God. To top it off, someone at Hans' school actually started a rumour that Momley and Greek God are having an affair. It was funny and tragic on many levels. Funny as in Momley is a dowdy stay-at-home type who is too busy with too many things to have an affair because that would add to her responsibilities! Tragic as in kids are involved on both sides. Why would anyone spread such a rumour?!

After a stressful couple of weeks, here are my thoughts. A funeral service always puts things in perspective.

Life is indeed short. Be with people who make us happy. Greek God has become a good friend; unfortunately, he is of the opposite gender. We are in the 21st century and there are still some of us who can speculate a friendship based on gender stereotypes. Ignore and move on.

Note: I feel like I should go into rage mode like my dad did many years ago and go beat up someone! But I am in a sad mode. What can I say?! Even adults are confused sometimes. However, life is short. I must enjoy it while I can and while I am at it, ignore I will and move on!
