I am very sorry about your friend. Sometimes life has the habit of holding us responsible for the acts or ommissions we take, either by punishing or rewarding us for our decisions.

It is tough at times but sometimes we have the power to take our fate in our hands, and we don't use in the best way.

16 is a great age, I have lived through those years several times already. Follow the straight and narrow, you will be immensely rewarded.
