I have no words.
I feel numb- there is a large storm of emotion lying underneath the surface but I'm almost afraid to let it out.
I try to dispel the clouds with the reminder of the words from one my English students who I greatly respect. We were talking about what you teach your children when they encounter bad people:
"Yes, there are bad people in the world. Those people will do things to hurt you and others around you. However, the world is also full of good people, people who will inspire and help you. Become friends with the good people. Become a good person yourself."
I wonder though if I'm capable of good. If the little good I'm capable of can ameliorate in the smallest part some of the bad.
Praying for the families in Connecticut and in China. Praying for the world.
