My Beloved

I started this blog back in October with every intention of actually updating it. Like every other project I've ever started, I have severely neglected it. I've had plenty of things to talk about and I've even written a few down. Now that I finally have something to write, I wish with all of my heart that I did not.

On Friday, March 26th, my best friend in the entire world died. He was everything I could have asked for in a friend. No matter the time of day, if I needed him, he was there to comfort me. When I cried, he would sit in silence and listen. His presence often gave me reassurance during the dark times of my life. As I sit here typing, tears streaming down my face, all I can think of is him being here to comfort me, yet I know that I will never get to see him again. He is gone and I feel like my heart has been ripped in half.

Losing him has been like losing a member of my family. His beautiful soul was taken before his time and I cannot begin to describe the grief those of us who love him are going through. I suppose I am using this post to cry and say goodbye. More importantly, I want him to always be remembered. He was the joy in my life and I will love him forever.

Goodbye, my beloved Sampson. I love you so much.
