canadiangirl Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 It sickens me, what happened in Paris, and what happened in Lebanon, in Egypt, in Afghanistan these last days. I am trying to deal with the aftermath of one death, and because of the total disregard by some (insert choice words) individuals for our common humanity, now a whole lot of families are struggling. I realize this is the case around the world, and that many of my problems are minor (infinitesimal!) compared to those living in developing countries. I still reserve the right to struggle, and even vent about it. Perhaps I am part of a collective howl that just got much louder. Nonetheless, I wanted to post to say that Paris gives me perspective, and--although it sounds trite--I grieve for those families too, having a small sense of what lies ahead. It is not right. I hope for a better world for my small one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoVerySad Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Yes, CG, so much sadness ahead for so many. It is heartbreaking. I saw that a man had a piano placed outside the theater where so many were killed and played the song "Imagine". If only... Tight hugs to you...

Virgo Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I think it's going to get worse before it gets better. Heartbreaking for all those affected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathyr Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Yes, it truly breaks my heart to think of the pain ahead for so many that were affected by all these recent tragedies. Like you, I also grieve for all others who are suffering. It really isn't right! Hugs to all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
