Not much.
However, I do know that I really like him. It takes a lot to
feel so warmly toward somebody that I haven’t
spent much time with. See, as a general rule, I dislike most people. But, Josh
is an exception.
Like I said, I don’t know
Josh that well, but I know he’s a cat
enthusiast, a horror connoisseur, and a facial hair champion (seriously, have you seen the
beard?).
Josh looks out for his friends and, unlike many, wants nothing more from
his loved ones than their company. An ideal
day for Josh may be spent doing nothing more than sharing
a bowl with a friend while scrutinizing a D-List horror movie on Netflix. He’s just a regular, ol’, cuddly teddy
bear.
Another thing I know for
sure about Josh is that he loves with his whole heart. The type of adoration Josh feels for
his friends and family is all encompassing
and unconditional, which is something most
of us strive for but never seem to grasp.
Without people like Josh, the world would be devoid of lots of laughter and love.
This is why I’m glad the world has people like Josh.
While recently watching Rex Murphy’s tribute to my late father, I was saddened that my father wasn’t able to hear Murphy’s wonderful words. I’ve decided to write pieces that are dedicated to telling the people in my life how great I think they are. I call them “Vituaries.”
-----------------
late 14c., "death," from Middle French obit or directly from Latin obitus "death," noun use of past participle of obire "to die," literally "to go toward" (see obituary). In modern usage (since 1874) it is usually a clipped form of obituary, though it had the same meaning of "published death notice" 15c.-17c.
plural vitae, Latin, literally "life," from PIE root *gwei- "to live."
