The world gave us sad news yesterday about a small town that experienced shocking grief.  My heart goes out to the families that had to walk through those dark and difficult moments.  Although we are all destined to leave this Earth one day, nobody expects to leave in such a manner as those that were taken far too soon in Colorado.  I know that we have heard stories all over the world of a person that was so disconnected with humanity that the alternative that they sought was to deliver pain to others, for the pain they may have been feeling themselves.  The true meaning of faith is born in those heavy moments afterwards, when one is seeking answers to what appears to be unanswerable questions.  In addition to the pain this causes, it also takes away our sense of security as we take inventory of what we consider a safe environment.  We sometimes take for granted that we will be here for many years to come.  Let us not take each other for granted and remember to acknowledge and say to our loved one's how much they mean to us.  We will keep Aurora in our prayers along with the many families across the country that may have suffered a tragic loss of a loved one.  Tragedies occur far more often than they should.  We can unite in spirit and attempt to bring a celestial balance to a world that seems to lack it at the present time.
