Sporadic musings and ramblings of a woman with too much in her head and not nearly enough time on her hands....

There is so much to say

Yet, I cannot find the words. So much violence in schools, even an Amish school. I live near the Amish. I have purchased vegetables, flowers, furniture...quilts...so much peace in those communities and it is shattered by this. Girls targeted, molested, assaulted.

My heart hurts. Aches.

Gun control is not the answer. The answer is getting the troubled, the angry, the hurt, to call for and accept the help they so desperately need. the answer is treating the cause of the violence, not locking away the implement. There will always be an implement.

Dear God, keep my kids safe. Tomorrow, and the tomorrow after that, and for all the tomorrows to come. This I pray.

Amen.
