Newtown, Connecticut
A truly sad and tragic day in America. It's hard to go on and move past this, but we'll have to. It's hard to comprehend, and no words can explain it. Nothing can help us to understand why? I am always encouraged though, by how people in our society pull together and support one another with great love and compassion in troubled times such as this. Today we hug our loved ones just a little bit tighter and longer, with our hearts breaking for the others that can no longer hold theirs. I don't want to remember the name of the evil person who took these lives, most of which were young innocent children. I do want to remember each one of these 26 people who are forever loved and will be missed by their family and friends, and those of us whom they have touched our hearts. Bless their souls and may they rest in peace, and shall they always be remembered.
