Virginia Tech
I’ve had a powerful urge to blog about the Virginia Tech shootings, but every time I thought about it I found myself drifting into politics, gun-control and big-media-bashing. None of that matters right now, though. All that matters is that we all take time to say goodbye to all the victims and to take a moment to think about those wounded, physically or emotionally, and to hope (or pray, if you’re so inclined) that they recover as fully as is possible. The world we have built for ourselves won’t let us stay out of the mud for long, so take the time now to honor the memories of the dead as well as the lives of the survivors, their friends and their families.
