Sadness

The elementary school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut is terribly sad, wrong to the core. Shooting little children at school.....it feels pat to write about it. It didn't happen to me. I can't fathom one fraction of what those parents feel.

But it sobers you up in the holiday season. I can carry around their sadness with me. Somehow there's a pall over tidings of comfort and joy. Those poor families, those poor kids who went through that, the lost and the surviving.

Good night.
