Tough Times
Charleston, S.C.
The news is tough to watch these days. This story of the shooting in the theater in Colorado is just so sad. I can't even imagine what a nightmare it was for the people there.
Things have been tough for some folks in my life closer to home as well with illness, sadness and loss. Hang in there folks. Peace and strength.
Life, like the sight of those glorious blooms, is often quite joyful and lovely. Yet, it also throws us curves by bring home sadness and tragedy, an inescapable part of life. Wish it weren't true!
I'd rather look at this picture than watch the news any day. And so I will. Bad news travels fast, and when there's nothing you can do to change it, it's just depressing. Which is why I avoid the news whenever possible.

ReplyDeleteYeah, there are some pretty disturbed people out there. Shame others have to suffer because of their unhappiness.
