This Thankful Thursday, as I digest the latest massacre in this country, I try to refocus and fill my mind with all the things I can be thankful for, starting with my kids being alive today. My heart breaks for the victims and families of yet another school mass shooting. Yes, AGAIN.
We can control gun law reform, we can control security measures, we can control mental health programs. And we should, all of the above. But what we cannot control is an individual’s state of mind, let alone an evil one. Just incredibly difficult. God help us.
While there are those who say thoughts and prayers are for nothing, and I realize they are not a solution, as faith-filled believers, it is imperative we offer ours for those touched by this latest evil act. May this be the last one.
What are you thankful for today?
Until next Thursday’s post…si Dios quiere.

Terribly sad. 🙁
This certainly was a shocking heart-breaking event for so very many victims. I am at a loss for words, other than we all need to continue to watch out for and communicate with each other. Even just a simple “Hello…how are you today?” can change someone’s outlook on life. Boop
