Take heart
This past weekend I have spent time doing what I love to do. I spent time with the people who make me happy and I love them for it. I also spent time watching another national tragedy unfold right in front of me on the television, the internet and in my heart. Although I don't know anyone who was hurt or the gunman, it reminded me of when I did know people, when the tragedy happened to people I knew and cared about. I think so often I forget even though I lived through one, that people take guns and shoot people. Maybe its my naiveness or my ability to shut the world but everytime this happens, it like I am 16 and its Columbine all over again. I want to hug everyone who lost someone, I want to tell them that they will smile again, that it will be okay. I especially want to hug those poor parents who right now are wondering why on earth their kid just went and shot a bunch of people for reasons they will never fathom. For they will suffer just as much as everyone else if not more wondering what they could done to prevent it. So I sit here and I remember that I am lucky, I have people who love me, I have them right here where I can hold them and cuddle them. I wish the best to those to who lost those and remember that they are never gone from our hearts.
