Rest In Peace Firefox
8 years ago
General
Ive had to take a little time to put how I feel into words. Moreso because when I first heard of it all I could feel was anger and hatred toward the person that took this young mans life.
I dont think anger is what is needed right now. I think what is truly needed is a moment of silence. A moment of quiet and respect. And a moment to grieve for the lives lost. For their loved ones left behind.
I talked back and forth with James Firefox for a while. He liked my art and wanted to commission me. And from our conversations I could tell he was a relaxed and friendly person.
I certainly wasnt expecting the news that day.
James Firefox was murdered a few days ago. He was only twenty years old. And he was taken from his loved ones. As angry as I am at whoever took this young mans life I am equally confused.
Ive spent the last few days trying to understand it. But in the end I dont think I can. Evil exists in our world and there is often not an easy answer to it. And there certainly isnt an easy fix for it.
All I can do now as a person is try to be better. A better person to others. And maybe that will help. Maybe if I, maybe if we can just be better and kinder. Maybe if we can give more love to those around us. Maybe it can make a difference.
I wish I had an answer for his family. Some way to bring them comfort. I cant imagine what they are going through. I cant imagine losing a son.
I hope with all of my heart they can find peace. It wont be anytime soon I know.
I will be praying for them.
I wont forget you James.
I like to believe theres a place we all go after this life. It is my hope that he has found peace in a beautiful place.
Too often we get comfortable around our loved ones. We get into a routine. Its just how humans are. I urge all of you to take a moment and just spend some time with the people you love.
None of us are promised tomorrow. Its important to take some time out of our day to just be with the people we love.
17 For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.
18 So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
2 Corinthians 4:17-18

I found this beautiful person through a commission you'd done, and was planning on creating a commission for him as well.
We talked back and forth while he saved up his money...I was devastated to find out the reason I hadn't heard from him lately.
