Here is the world. It is not a safe place, but however frightening and bewildering life may become, we can survive our fears and make peace with the world.

There was another school shooting today. This time in my own state. This time close to home. This time it happened in the same school district as my son’s. This time, people I know and love were directly impacted by the tragedy – friends whose children heard and saw things that no one ever should.
This time it was for Real.
How terrible Beth… not something anyone should go through…
Thank you for your thoughts Bulldog. I wish we knew how to make it all stop, tragedies like this are becoming all too commonplace.
I heard the new this morning about this. I cannot imagine having to deal with or go through something like this. My prayers are with all the families.
Thank you Nora. It is all so tragic, even for the boy who was the source of the violence. They are all just kids. We can’t forget that.
This falls too close to home, and I can feel your pain and concern from this tragic event. It’s one of those senseless acts that will never be understood.
Thank you for your warm and caring comments. I, too, wish there was a simple answer to all of these senseless acts of violence.
