- Go to It Is Difficult To Want To Write...
I completely understand your feelings. Regardless of the senseless destruction that some crazed people feel they must carry out to get their message across, there is still plenty of good in the world that gives us hope. I lost my dad when he was just 36, and I lost my paternal grandparents in a house fire. She was only 43 and he was 52 when they suffered a miserable death from smoke inhalation in the winter of 1968. I have learned that life has no guarantees. Some days are harder than others to navigate through with a heavy heart. Hang in there. Writing allows those feelings to be released, which, in my mind, is necessary for healing. Try to have a good day. Happy thoughts.

Life does have a way of going on in spite of the craziness around us and the world at large.

Hang in there, Taps. The good is necessary to balance the not-good. Your influence helps.
