Tragedy in Boston
My heart, like so many others, is very heavy as I write this.
The bombings during the Boston Marathon were devastating, horrendous and shocking .
A totally happy event on a holiday, Patriot's Day, was destroyed by one or more people with sick minds and evil hearts.
Why is there such evil in the world? Why?
Why would someone want to cause chaos and fear at such a good and worthwhile event?
After listening and watching report after report of the devastating bombings on what should have been a totally wonderful vacation day, I went for a ride by myself.
As always, I drew close to a lake I love and found deep peace in a glorious sunset, shown in this post.
A couple of birds in flight, oblivious to wretched events happening in the world, were captured in some of the photos.
Then, I took the last photo of the tree against the sunset, right before driving into our driveway.
After seeing the splendor of nature, I felt better.
All I could do was pray for those who had been touched by this latest act of evil.
Pray for those who lost their lives.
Pray for those who lost limbs.
Pray.
HOW DO YOU HANDLE SHOCKING NEWS SUCH AS THAT IN BOSTON ON MONDAY?
