All of us are so saddened and sickened that there is still such horror in
the world. I cannot even
come close to imagining the grief of the people who are grieving the loss
of their loved ones.
I too am praying that we have leadership that will lead us in the right
direction.  The word "war" has a whole new meaning
to me personally, since my son just turned 18. It really puts into
perspective how really connected we are and how complacent we have
become about our safety and freedom.

I hope all of you in D.C. and NYC are safe.
