No Words

I cannot wrap my mind around the events that unfolded at Virginia Tech yesterday.

The only words echoing through my mind are

He was somebody's son. He was somebody's son.


As we mourn those that lost their lives, I think it is critical that we find solutions - not people to blame - but solutions. We need to know our children. We need to know one another. We need to make sure our children and one another know God.

He was somebody's son.

Incredibly simple yet powerful thoughts, Amy. While I do not think that it is possible for us to wrap our minds around what happened, I believe that it is important for us to try.

Yes. Somebody's son. Somebody who probably feels like they're alone in their mourning today. Thank you for your thoughts, Amy. My prayers go up for all of them, and all of us.

I thought the same thing, Amy. His mother is just as sad as any other mother involved.

I'm with you. I can only imagine that this brought back memories to all the Columbine and Amish families too. I kicked a newspaper box yesterday b/c there idea of front page reporting was an editorial on medical privacy.
