Anytime a good person is taken from us abruptly, you can't help but feel that a light in this World has gone out. I guess when I was informed that my friend James was dead, I was rather shocked. He was a photographer also, and I saw him just a few weeks ago when he told me he had finally finished the photography for the book he was working on. It really makes you question life's purpose, when such a benevolent and talented individual's life was cut so short.
Being an Artist is important, as art makes people happier, and also that happiness is one of the most important factors in life. Anytime I saw James, he was happy, and spoke passionately about his work. Being an Artist also, I know how hard it can be to show beauty, in a World that has so much darkness. However, I feel that James left an everlasting impression in this World, with his art, and with anyone who knew him.
My condolences to his friends and family.
