Another Sad Ending

I was listening to ESPN this morning when I heard the story about the Cincinnati Bengals Wide Receiver, Chris Henry. I just don’t understand why people continue to make decisions that put their lives in danger. Mr. Henry had a troubled past and recently appeared to be going down the right track for once. He was a young man with three children and now his is gone. Why? Because he made a mistake of jumping in the back of a truck that his fiancĂ© was driving.

He was not shot or beaten. He died because of his own mistake. I hate it for him and his family and I hope the woman driving is charged and sent to prison for a long time. Henry should have never jumped in the back of the truck and his fiancé should have stopped when he did.

Bad relationships are not worth dying over. Seriously, if your relationship is to the point where there is a possibility of death, then it is time to move on. If he would have let her go and not jumped in the truck, he would be here today. There might still be problems, but at least he would be alive to deal with them.

Remember this story the next time you get angry at your spouse, friend or anyone else and think about the consequences before you do anything you are going to regret. It might just save your life!

Rest In Peace!
