Virginia

I am sitting here just watching blanket coverage on the news channel from Virginia. Please tell me none of you have children there. My heart just breaks for all those families. What a senseless waste of life.

This takes us in Colorado back emotionally draining days surrounding the Columbine disaster. What a sad world we live in!

We were just eating dinner and listening to the 6 o'clock news when we heard about this. My heart goes out to all the families. Indeed, a very sad world we live in when we can't be safe at our own schools. xo

This is the first chance I've had to turn on the tv (my little granddaughter was here today). It is so hard to take these things in. The enormity of it - the lives affected - the absolute tragedy.
I don't know of anyone with a child there. I just can't imagine.

I actually went down my sidebar remembering where each lives.
Such a tragedy, and a waste of young lives...

I can't even begin to imagine the rage inside a person that would cause them to do such a thing. It's just so incredibly heartbreaking!

It is incredibly heartbreaking isn't it. I just can't imagine.

I had to post about it to release the emotions. One feels so helpless.

Such a sad, sad thing. My heart aches for the students who are there - their lives are changed forever. I can't imagine being a parent who lost a child there today. So many prayers to say tonight. Be safe, My Friends.

I think we're all just shell shocked, Linds. It's so horrible it's almost impossible to believe. I can't imagine how a person could be so lost as to kill 32 people and himself. It's horrible.
