Okay, I’m more asking for some positive Ted Lasson energy right now. So bear with me. I lost a friend a couple of days ago to a series of heart attacks due to ketoacidosis. None of us had any idea he was diabetic, so it came out of the clear blue sky. He actually was in ICU after his first heart attack and had texted with our group that morning. Next day, we found out he had died.

Here today, gone tomorrow.

We’re all devastated by this. He’s the first close friend we’ve lost. And I’m having a hard time feeling that BELIEVE energy. The end is darker right now and feels deeply unfair.

I feel my faith slipping away.

So I ask you, the Lassoites, can you find a Lassoism or moment to help me get through this? Because my belief feels pretty weak right now.
