I was in a school building yesterday when I saw the news on the internet about the Connecticut shooting. I was so horrified. I kept calm and carried on because I realized that was all I could do. I treated the students around me with care and respect and I cherished life. I realized that I knew this horrible thing and that the students/teachers in the building were still innocent of the facts. I knew that they would learn of the event later in the day and would be as devastated as I.
Guns have been around for a very long time without people using them to commit senseless acts of mass murder. It?s not the guns that are the problem, it?s something else. It?s the unraveling of the culture perhaps. There are so many things wrong with our society right now that it can?t be put down to one thing.
I enjoyed the posts re: shifts in thinking. I'm still working on it, but maybe it is something that can't be forced, but comes with time. Slow learner here.
Cyn, Chill, Cat, Star, Papmom (fingers crossed), Rusty, Rustop, LBH, Lav, Kas, Love and peace to all.
