After finding out he overdosed on Heroine and Alcohol it's sad to me...
When I think about people who struggle with addictions like this it pains me to think they may never find peace past it. It lingers. It's suppressed but it lingers and only people who have been through it know. It's a lifetime battle and to be so young dealing with it is terribly sad. This speaks to my entire generation. We're all falling a part. There's so many evils out here and many of us are lost, broken, confused, and don''t know what we're here for. Our purpose on this earth and if many of us had positive role models and the mentorship we needed we wouldn't fall prey to these harsh realities of life. In Cory's case he was dealing with the divorce of his parents and struggles as a kid growing up. How we learn to manage the hardships in our lives makes a big difference in how we live our lives. If we don't have an outlet then we go straight to the worst things. People may just be mourning and completely upset but the reaction I've noticed has been very mild and disconnected. I'm surprised by the lack of emotion I've seen in the face of his untimely passing. He was a GLEE star. Leading stars no one could mistaken and I know there were thousands of fans of that show. Maybe in Hollywood they knew he had an addiction and just left it at that. Nothing they could do or didn't try to do for this young man. He left this earth at his youthful prime and if he was a silly, fun, sweet guy he's in the best place with our Lord until we see him again. I personally thought he was cute and seeing him talk these past few days I feel like he could've been someone I would've liked and wanted to be around. It's such a waste. We need to care about each other and really push for each other when we're battling the worst. Society is pulling away from each other. We can't do that and expect to continue life on this planet.
