obstacles

An obstacle that I have faced in my life is that two of my male figures in my life died last year. They died 3 months apart. In February I lost my cousin Chris due to a heart attack. He was only 30 something years old. He was like a dad to me. Anything I needed he would get it for me. When ever I was sick he would make sure I was okay and come and get me from school if I got sick there. He also took me to my first basket ball game. I loved him so much it hurt me a lot when he died. Then in May I lost my other cousin Al. He was like a dad/uncle to me. He died while he was teaching in China (cause never reveled). His death devastated me as well. I loved him SO much as well.
The death of these two men hurt me. They were the reason I stay motivated in school. They were successful in everything they did. When ever I would need help in school they were there to assist me. They made sure I kept my grades up and made sure I lived up to my potential. Even though they are gone they will never be far from my heart. I am still living up to everything they wanted me to be and I will continue to live up to everything they wanted for me and more. I love them with all my heart and I always will.
R.I.P.
Chris and Al
gone but not forgotten
