[Gren the cake]

i had an uncle come down from canada a couple years ago. he was abou 34.. or 37 at the time im assuming? anyway, he specificlaly came down to date. LOL, i guess not having any luck up there.

he was down here for about 2 months, used the guest room, my toilet, my shower...

anyway. my mom called me today, first of all to yell at me as to where the hell i was the whole weekeend. then to tell me 'your uncle raul died this weekend. asthma attack'

he died on saturday.

no, im not looking for sympathy. yeh, i kinda knew him, and he was real real nice... i mean its sad. but moreso, it got me thinkin

he had a career, a car, a house up there.... but he never had love. for what reasons, i'm not sure. so i think, he was 'established' but he never had a special someone. he came down here hoping for some luck, didnt get it. and now thats it

hence the title... just something to think about.

and then i wonder, so maybe if he DID find her.. he wouldve died anyway? OR i wonder... was he at work when he had the attack? or was he ALONE in the house... couldnt get to a phone or have anyone to yell at/help him?

he was an ok lookin guy, although i would definitely say, hearing some of the stuff he'd say about the girls (eg 'she wasnt that fat in the picture') i could KINDA understand why he didnt have a gf or wife. ... i dunno, just a thought!

not that its a bad thing to have a job and a house, but sometimes i wonder about peoples materialism... just like all the songs say.. the only thing u need in life is LOVE. at least, thats what I believe.. (and dont be stupid and start telling me 'well u need food otherwise you'll starve' etc etc. you know what i mean).
