I came across this quote today, and I feel it has significance in the aftermath of VT and on my own campus after the death of 4 students within the last month.
"As we confront the deaths of others we must be reminded that there is a reservoir of love and compassion in the human community. We don't need to be afraid to show our vulnerability, because to mourn when we are bereaved is not a sign of weakness but a stepping into the circle where all the brothers and sisters can put their arms around us and hold us close, if we give them a chance."
