Why so much?

Its amazing how you can go from a normal day making s'mores, to knowing that someone has died. A close friend of my husband has died. He's upset.

Lately, the world seems like nothing but death. Its been a bad month for former Presidents, the famous and the infamous. Several co-workers' relatives have passed (there was even a murder?!?!?). I was even late to PT this afternoon because I had to follow a funeral procession all the way from the church across the street to the gate.

Why so much?
