Sad day today…


The Boston Marathon was bombed. Doesn’t really matter how many died, or were injured…they were…at the very least an eight year old died, trying to watch a sporting event. People aged from 3 to 70 in emergency rooms, at least two explosions, another controlled explosion and a bomb found intact and defused. It is most definitely a terrorist attack.

What has to be going through a deranged person’s mind to commit such a heinous act? I say deranged  because this was no act of war, it was deliberately aimed at civilians. Obviously you can’t understand it, because to understand it you must be one of them. The media glorifies it, wondering if it was a “Lone Wolf” or a group.  Yes cowardice can have many names and titles.

And special kudo’s to that throw-away channel 14 KJZZ, that was airing one of those judge shows instead of putting together some kind of coverage, even if it was off a satellite. No wonder I don’t watch that station.

It was snowing earlier today, and yet as I’m sitting here writing this the sun is poking out of the clouds, the birds are chirping, and life is going on outside my window. It has to, because if it doesn’t, if we don’t, then the perpetrators of this heinous act have achieved what they set out to do.

Please keep them in your prayers, meditation, thoughts, whatever it is you do, help in any way you can.
