After having spent this week away from everyone , sleeping , I was ready to go back to work . Being in seclusion , I wanted to orient myself with the world . Flipping through the channels , I came across the school shooting .
For the rest of the day , Emily and I sat riveted to the screen . The last time we did that it was with the movie theatre . We were shocked . What in the world possesses a person to go into an elementary school and kill those children ? What could those little ones have done to that young man ?
In a moment , life was changed forever . . . . . for everyone . Not for just the people in that school , but for all of us . How do you explain this to our children ? To ourselves ? You can't . I don't think we will ever learn the why .
I feel totally helpless . All I can do is pray for the families and everyone involved . That's all we can do . A very sad day today , my friends .
