My Thoughts Toward Paris

11/13/15

I have no connection to Paris. I am not saddened because of WHERE this tragedy of terror happened; I am sad BECAUSE it happened.

I am sad because I am a person- a mom, wife, daughter, sister, teacher...and so were they.

This life is fragile, and precious, and it is always fine...until suddenly its not.

When I pray, it is not for Paris, it is for her people. For them to be comforted, for them to find the strength to go on amid such tragedy. It is also for the rest of us who were not directly touched.

Nations full of us.

That we would do something.

Whether it is to open our home to someone in need, or to vote, or to donate money, or to go and help where help is needed. Just let's do something to make this world a better, safer place for our children.
