Brady, I didnt know you personally. I barely knew you at all.. but I cried. I wish I could have known you so much better than I did.

The first time we met, i knew you were such a good person. We would totally skate together, by the way my brother totally approved of you. You were the first person that I told about my problem. You were there for me, I just wish i was there for you. I wish I had gone to flyleaf with you, I wish I hung out with you when you asked, I wish I had talked to you more this year. I wish everything was ok. You'll always be in my heart, and I'll always love you. ...r.i.p.

Man i'll always remember you and wish could still be here with us, ill always remember the stories you had for us and the jokes. I'll see you someday in the after life bro. Love ya man,

Rest in Peace

We may not have talked so recently but we have definitely had fun times in the middle school. I'll always miss and remember you.

ill miss you bro. all the fun times we skated together

I wrote this to get some prospective on things. It helped me out, and I'm hoping that by posting it maybe it can help someone else out, too. I didnt know Brady that well, but I still feel it, though i admit not nearly as strong as some of you do. But its still there. I still cried.

Before you read this i want to say two things. First, make sure to read the WHOLE thing. If you stop in the middle then i'll sound like the biggest dickhead douchebag in the world, so please read it all. And second and most importantly... Rest in peace, Brady Patterson. We all love you and miss you. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

What is life? what does it all mean? Why are we here? Our thoughts; nothing more than chemical reactions running through our brains at millions of miles an hour. A heart, no more than a muscle pumping sticky red liquid through our bodies. That's all we are. A huge blob of tissue and bones controlled by chemical and electrical reactions in our brains and muscles.

So when this kind of stuff happens, why am I sad? A series of chemical reactions is now gone from this earth.

Why should I feel bad about it?

Because a soul is much more than that. The soul controls those reactions. The soul controls those thoughts. The soul controls those tissues. And every soul feels the void that loss of a soul close to it leaves. Whether you knew him well or not. Whether you loved him or hated him, if you knew him at all, you know you cried. Or at least you know your eyes teared up. Mine did. And if it hasn't happened yet, when it finally sinks in, It will.

But the real question is this... Why? I like to think his soul lives on even though it no longer resides in this flesh and bone world. So shouldn't I be happy? Happy that his soul is now free of its human constraints, able to roam the universe, doing what it pleases? Shouldn't I try to celebrate his life instead of mourning his death? All of these are logical conclusions, conclusions someone from the outside would say I should make. But I can't. Not fully. Sure, we can celebrate his life. Yes, I'm ecstatic that his soul his free. But there's still a void. One that cant be filled. A special spot in my soul, reserved for one person.

Rest in peace, Brady Patterson. We will miss you.
