That is so sad, possibly the saddest thing I have ever heard, I am almost crying reading it. There is nothing in my life that comes anywhere near as sad as that, so I won't even try. Everytime I am feeling down or get angry with my wife or daughters I will think of your story and realise what a fool I am. My wife loves both those songs and everytime she listens to them I will think of you. I must let her read this as well.

My "sad song" is you needed me by Boyzone. The reason is that it was a song i chose to be played at my mum's funeral. The lyrics are so deep...

That was really sad, Mark. Nearly had me in tears.

Hmm, I have loads of songs that are garenteed to make me cry if I hear them..

But i'd probably have to go with Puff Daddy - I'll be missing you & Deep Blue something - Breakfast at Tiffanys.

When I was much younger, we had a big gang of friends we used to hang out with. This new boy, Thomas, came to our school one day when I was around the age of 8. We hit it off straight away and became the best of friends. All through our childhood we spent practically every day together and were inseperable. We carried on growing up together going through all the changes life brings you...first kiss, first girlfriend, leaving primary school ect. we shared it all...His mum & dad had become like my adopted parents, when my own parents divorced, they were always there for me and helped me to overcome the pain I was going through at the time. One day when I was 14 years old, I was sitting in class and I got a note passed to me. It was from Thomas and it just basically said that he liked me much more than just friends, had done for awhile and that he wanted me to be his girlfriend. I thought he was joking and just laughed it off. He was a jack the lad and the note seemed far too romantic and soppy to be true. After school, His other best friend Graham, came up to me and asked me what I thought of the note? I told him ha ha very funny, but he had the most serious look on his face and proceeded to tell me that Thomas really liked me, he never shut up about me and that it wasn't by any means a joke. I talked to Thomas about it quickly and we said we'd meet up later tonight to talk..He was going to Graham's after school which was a fair way a way, and they had to go as they were on their bikes. Little did I know..I'd never did get to talk to him about that note or his feelings.

A few hours later I got a phonecall off of his mum who was at the hospital to say that Thomas had been cycling to Graham's after school and had been run over. It turns out that he'd gone to cross over a road and a car had hit him, he got thrown into the air and then another car ran over him. I went to the hospital, but he'd already died. After that things went downhill, Graham was in a terrible state because he'd witnessed what had happened and he dropped out of school and had to have loads of counsilling. At Thomas' funeral..they played Puff Daddy - I'll be missing you, and Deep Blue Something - Breakfast at Tiffanys as they were the last 2 singles he had bought. I was totally cut up, devistated but tried to be strong for his mum and dad, especially his dad, because they doted on Thomas and used me as a crutch to remind them of him.

Exactly 6 months later, I got another phonecall to say that Tim, his dad, had been complaining of a terrible headache..A few hours later he'd died of a brain Tumour. It's really fucked up - the card life deals you Somtimes. Again they played i'll be missing you at his funeral, and they scattered his ashes in the same place as Thomas'.

His mum had lost her Husband and her little boy all in the space of 6 months. She didn't cope very well and started becoming really distant from me. She found it akward being around me because I reminded her of Thomas, but instead of that being a good thing...It turned into 'Why is she still here, and not Thomas' kind of thing. If I hear either of those songs I have to leave the room, as I will be in tears for hours.

It's amazing how one song can bring back memories so vividly.

But stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,
it's when things seem worse that you must not quit.

I'm not religious at ALL..But have a look at this.....

I dunno. It sounds silly, but I suppose you have an inner strength...and you don't realise how strong you truely are until something bad happens and you have no choice but to cope.

When life hands you melons. Make melonade.
