I don't know all the facts nor will I pretend to, but I am sure like 1000s of others watching the news tonight there is a sadness in your heart. The days shooting in an elementary school is heartbreaking.
All I know at present is that at least 12 people including children have lost their lives, and hundreds will be scarred by the memory. I can not imagine what those poor families are feeling at the moment, or how they will manage to get through the forthcoming festive season with their loss or injured family members.Having lost family members expected and not expected over this season myself I have experienced the affect of sheer hollowness left behind
This on the morning after the fun raising concert for the families who suffered from the Hurricane not 2 months ago. I can see that Christmas on the East coast of America being a more subdued affair.
Like many others there is little I can do at the moment but watch the news unfold. I can't take the pain away or give any logical explanation to these events. What I do know is recently I was given a candle of faith from a different church than my own. This was to light and celebrate the life of Christ, however tonight I will be lighting it in memory of all those innocents lives lost, denomination or faith not restricting. Especially as I have just heard the numbers have doubled from the start of this post.
