OK

The sun still shines with warmth
Another day still begins and ends

Hope can still be seen
In all the miracles of love

Helping hands reach out
And hold you in their arms

You can see and feel
The love pouring out

From others all around
Willing to give most importantly

Their time
Their support

Their kindness
Their strength

When a world comes together
As one

You know you will be
OK

Tragedy

I decided not to post the continuation of the vacation chronicles tonight due to the tragedy that happened in Connecticut today. Instead I'm praying and thinking of the many, many lives that were forever changed today by one persons senseless act.

To those affected:

 "I pray you may feel the peace and love of God amidst this incomprehensible time of pain, anger, suffering, sorrow and tragedy. May you feel loving arms wrapped around you as you go through each moment and may you feel strength beyond your comprehension. My heart goes out to each and everyone of you."
