is this how it's going to be from now on?

so now that i'm 30, it seems i get bad news from friends left and right.

someone's getting divorced...
someone's got cancer...
someone's child has died...

i've got about 4 friends going thru divorces right now (that i know of)...
two of my friends have been diagnosed with or had remissions of cancer this week...
the best friend of a friend of mine lost his baby during birth because of a freak happenstance...

so once you turn 30, do you all of a sudden have to deal with the crap you were able to avoid brushing up against for the previous 29 years???

damn, it's depressing. even worse when you realize you've got all your own shit to deal with and extend support to those around you at the same time.
