It's so heartbreaking to watch the news and see what's happening in Puerto Rico! I just can't imagine what they're going through, I haven't heard how Texas or Florida are managing now or the wildfires that's been going on! They're natural disasters that's happening which is horrible but these mass shootings I just don't get WHY? What's wrong with people and driving into innocent people with vehicles ugh WHY? But no matter what is happening in this crazy World that we're living in let's be very vigilant and protect our quits with our lives and let's send all the devastation happening around the world our prayers and for whoever is in charge of helping Puerto Rico to do what needs to be done quickly please!

If we were still smokers, just think how all this would have contributed to doing it chain style! My heart breaks for all the tragedy we see unfolding..............
but I'm so glad we aren't smoking over it.

We SO NEED peace, we need to take care of each other, not just here but everywhere. This mass shooting is making me sick to my stomach, I cannot imagine what would make a person want to do that.

I so hope that help for the hurricanes, the earthquake, and the fires is improving, particularly in Puerto Rico.

I was just thinking the same things, Marilyn! I just read this article which I know to be true:
Forgotten in life and death: inequality for Mexico's invisible underclass after quake | World news | The Guardian
Can you imagine having a worker in your household for Years and not even acknowledge that they have a last name, a family, a life outside of your needs? Whether they get paid or not is secondary to you? Cruelty has always existed but you know what, Marilyn? Good always triumphs over Evil and LOVE always trumps Hate! (Sorry about the pun; I couldn't resist!)

I have no words (well, I have lots of words, but think I need to keep them to myself). Vegas is sad. PR is sad. Mexico is sad. FL is sad. TX is sad.

This is sooo overwhelming on all accounts. Thomas3.20.2010, Good always triumph over EVIL, and LOVE always overcomes HATE.
WE have an amazing priest, whose homily was on the subject of respect for life...ALL life, and mentioned an article that he read that the headline read..'How having children interferes with retirement finances'. This is how detached we are from life.
I'm a firm believer that in order for Good and Love to conquer EVIL and HATE, prayer, I beleive inprayer.
..,and of course, staying smoke free!

Not a whole lot we can do to stop the chain of events happening with Mother Nature, although I do try to do what I can daily in the way of conservation, recycling, etc. Sadly, I probably should keep my mouth shut, but it seems our government officials should have caught on long ago that there is plenty more we could be doing to keep guns out of the hands of people who have no business owning one-let alone an arsenal of assault weapons! When will we learn to place more value on human lives than on money contributed to politics by the lobbyists?

It's wonderful to see you Karen and I agree with you 100 %, my husband Mark and I try to do what we can to, we've been recycling for yrs now but there's so much more the governments can do because it's our grandchildren that really needs things to change and these assault rifles baffle the hell out of me because no one needs them whatsoever! How many more people need to suffer and die needlessly ughhhhhhhhhh I should be quiet now, huge hug for you.NewMe
