Reflections & a heavy heart..
I woke with a heavy heart this morning... I have had a heavy heart since the shootings on Friday... but I have tried to shake it & get on with life.. whilst trying to be just a wee bit kinder.. understanding.. patient.. But this morning as I rolled over and made the mistake of checking Facebook... (yes.. I am that horrible person with a smartphone on my nightstand) it just CLICKED for me... The horror of the shootings at Sandy Hook on Friday is horrible... what is also horrible is the fighting going on FACEBOOK back and forth..back and forth... guns.. no guns.. guns.. no guns... My very wise 13 year old asked over dinner this evening.... "why are they fighting over gun control in the US? - shouldn't they be thinking about the victims of this horrible tragedy right now?" "Yes.. my darling.. they should. .- they should be thinking of the victims.. and how we can all do something to make the world just a little bit better place....
