Life's Journey

I planned on sharing a gift-related and holiday family fun post today, especially seeing that my birthday is in two days but in wake of last weeks tragedy here in the USA I decided to change gears. It is simply not possible to ignore or act like nothing has happened at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Sadness and anxiety is felt in most places and close to the surface. I am reminded how precious life and time really is. I am sure people and family around me have noticed that my mood is not as jolly as usual even though I am still going around tackling all the tasks and events around me. I do not have all the answers to tragedy and trials but one things I do know is, “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”
