"Don't waste any time mourning. Organize!"
-Joe Hill
My brother texted the family group chat this quote before he went to work today. I'm not in a good place this morning, but we can't lose ourselves to despair. I know I have a lot of anger right now, but getting into whose fault that is won't help anyone.
Dwelling on the people I will never forgive won't help anyone.
I'm not that optimistic, but hope is a choice we can still make. It's a hard one to make this morning, but I'm still going to do my best. We are where we are, and focusing on yesterday won't change that. We can only move forward, and save as many as we can along the way.
There will be a tomorrow because we're going to make sure there's a tomorrow.

Well, that was utterly completely unexpected…
They’ve been together for four years and five months, living together for over three years, and same sex marriage is finally legal in their state.
A little out of left field in the narrative? A little – but that was on purpose, and only just.
But everyone should have been expecting this pretty soon. 😛
more the Way it was done then the fact that it was done to be honest i was expecting this since her dads funeral
Well, that was the “little” bit.
And yeah, everyone should have been expecting this since Megan’s Dad’s funeral. I was kind of telegraphing. 😛
Awwwwwww…
The whole “thinking about the future, gah!” immediately made me think it was going to lead to a marriage conversation. Not having seen these two discuss that at all made me not expect a proposal, because it’s becoming more and more common to cohabitate indefinitely without marriage, and I didn’t know their feelings on this. When thinking about any of my friends that have been together that long, I always think something like “It’s about time!” which is just ironic considering that Brian and I have been together longer than most of them have even known each other and feel no particular call to get married.
Eh, I don’t think its ironic — you just happen to be wired differently than a lot of other people. Nothing wrong with it.
That’s adorable
Not sure if that’s a horrible proposal, or a great one. Asuming of course it is a proposal… might be a vintage pokemon card in there, or something.
They don’t seem like the type to have a huge grand proposal. This actually fits them. No we wait for the reaction…
