Smile Ever Wondered?

Have you ever wondered if life is passing you by?(best viewed in large)

As I approach my 20th birthday I wonder, what have I acheived so far? Looking at how life has passed by makes me ask myself if i've made it worthwhile.

Friends have been made and lost, loves have come and gone. I've had good days, bad days and days I just wished it was all over. Been places, seen things I never thought I would see. Gained family as fast as I have lost it.

Would I do anything different? No. What i've done makes me who I am. So i'll put up with the good, the bad and the ugly because otherwise I wouldn't know the people I love and care for. I love my life, however dysfunctional it may be. And no one can change that.

Kiran Martin passed on 15/05/08. A beautiful girl that will be sorely missed. See more information about the Kiran Martin Fund here - www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?MemberId=6081205478

Ever wondered?

That's a very good take on life for someone so young.

Default Kiran

She was a girl from school. I didn't know her as well as some others but i felt the sting just as much as everyone else when she passed. She excerted happiness and everyone who had even come into contact with her lost an amazing girl. Every time i look at my yearbook i'm reminded of her, as are many others. It's weel worth looking at the page to see everything that has been done for her and Kiran's Trust.

Kiran seemed to be an inspiration to many, and she still is. The many things that her family and friends are doing is proof of her continuing inspiration. Thank you for sharing this.
