So why….?

Question:

hey phyllis i was the one e-mailing you about me being impatient about intensly alice but now
i finally have it and i think intensly alice is the saddest so far i mean —– was changing to become a different person and beginning a new life so why…..?

Phyllis replied:

Because this happens sometimes.  No rhyme or reason.  Sometimes the best or the young die first, and it makes us all sad and angry.  That’s why it’s so important to live every day as though it’s your last, although Alice tried to do that once, if I remember, to help her stop fighting with Lester so much, and it sort of didn’t work out.
