So sad! Did she just plain get pneumonia by itself? No previous issue?
She had good perspective. They can be proud.

The loss is greater than just a a parent’s Daughter, some man lost out on a chance of an excellent Wife who Bible values more precious than jewels. Children will not be born to a loving and God Fearing Mother who would have started and guided them on a good path. More unborn have lost a wise and supportive Grandmother. And all of us have lost a a Sister in Christ. We must all trust that God’s plan was for greater things than these for Taylor. May God sent his solace and healing to the hearts and souls of her family. All that agree please say Amen.

"How's your relationship with God?," Taylor asks her future self. "Have you prayed, worshiped, read the Bible or gone to serve the Lord recently? If not, get up and do so now!" Words of great wisdom from a wonderful and very smart girl.

Hmmm...no desire to become a mother or a wife but only to become someone who destroys others legally. Bummer.

You are absolutely right, we have to trust in God. She sure sounds like a daughter one can be proud of. May God grant her family peace. She’s in a far better place now.

That’s the thing that really stood out to me so I made note of it. Take it for what it’s worth.

An interesting exercise is to compose a letter to yourself at a very young age... what would you say to that younger self?
What if it were actually possible to dispatch that letter? How would your life be different now if you had received such a letter in your youth?

She wrote the letter last year so she would have been 11 or 12. That would make her 21 or 22 in 10 years. She is obviously a religious girl but at the young age of 22 most girls do not marry or have children until their education is complete. The poor girl had only been back from a mission trip for six days when she wrote the letter. I believe she would have married and would have raised her children according to her religious beliefs. Also, not all lawyers destroy people. Her father reads the whole letter in the video.

Like we really need more attorneys in this country?
We really need more engineers to build the country, not attorneys to destroy it.

Really, that’s all you got out of this? Did you even go through the entire video? You must live a truly sad and miserable life with such an outlook.

I got the other stuff which was great but this really stood out like a sore thumb.
I wish she’d have had higher aspirations than becoming an attorney.
