Praying for Toronto

[Wife of Tomasz]

I live in Toronto, Canada. My heart is very heavy today for all those who are affected by the cruel massacre that happened here yesterday. We here at widda all know how quickly our whole world can turn upside down.  Unfortunately we have new members to this club that no one wants to be a part of. So many lives take, and their families that find themselves in this hell of grief. Unfortunately all I can do is pray for them.

Although grief over my own loss has stained me and changed me, the take away, when I've looked at the bigger picture, is that grief is universal. When you hear or read about massacres, shootings, wars, diseases, famine, devastating weather systems, etc., someone out there has lost someone of vital importance to their life.

 

And so I live more as a part of the whole of humanity now. I own a heart with far less armor and I spend more time thinking about the conditions of our world while at the same time being more able to cherish what I have, who I have, as I have.

 

Sorry you are hurting for your Toronto.
