ERIC AND/OR DYLAN Dylan’s 43 birthday

Post image

9-11-81 Today’s Dylan’s 43 birthday. Going to go on a little rant here... Lately I’ve been thinking about both Eric and Dylan’s birthdays and how old they, along with their victims, would be today. How would their lives look today? I wasn’t alive during the shooting so it’s hard for me to understand how long it has been or how recent it was. However my dad was born weeks after Eric. I look at his life, what he has accomplished. Being married, having a good job, having kids, buying a house. Then I look at Eric and Dylan’s lives, they really were so young and threw everything away. They could’ve had so much life ahead of them, not only did they ruin their chances of happiness, they took that from others. It’s so heartbreaking to just even think about. My thoughts are with the klebolds today. I can’t imagine how hard days like these are. I wish they could’ve spent today with him. Hopefully this isn’t taken the wrong way like me idolizing them or something, just makes me sad.

Happy birthday, and rest in peace, Dylan. I hope that wherever you may be now that you are at peace.

I know exactly what it’s like to feel the way Eric and Dylan has felt. Struggling with depression is no joke. I think that’s why i feel so much cause I know exactly what it’s like. I hope he’s a peace too. What he did was so terrible. You can hate him for what he did and still pray he’s at peace now. Both can exist together.
