You know you want to be able to just simply understand why some things are the way they are without holding any emotion.
I am struggling with so many emotions tonight...well...actually for some time now but in all reality...I know it's futile to keep running around in my head for answers to questions I will most likely never be able to answer.
My stomach is in knots and I'm feeling so much sorrow for so many people, both close to my heart and those not close at all, however, all have found a place in my mind, in my chest. ..in my soul.
I think I could write a novel for each emotion I am struggling with ...this is not an option considering how late it is so, I will stick with sorrow for this evening and hopefully relieve some of the heaviness in my heart.
My very kind and beautiful friend just lost her Mom way too soon. I am humbled by my friends strength and courage throughout her Mom's illness and passing. I can't help but feel tightening in my own chest as I think of my Mother and her current battle with Rheumatoid Arthritis. I LOVE YOU MOM!
My childhood friend from Sudbury will lose her Grandfather very soon. This funny and lovable man of whom I fondly refer to myself as "Poppa Christink" saved my life.
I was the main focus of a RATTLE SNAKE up North and Poppa dove to my rescue and picked it up with a long stick, slug it several yards away and yelled for My friend and I to get into the trailer. I lost my grandparents many, many years ago so Poppa Christink, to me, was MY Poppa. Thanks to the Christinks for letting me share him..he will be holding Nanna's hand soon. This thought makes my heavy heart feel a bit lighter.
I have not visited with him in many years and I feel terrible that I will not be able to hold his hand and tell him how much I appreciate all of the wonderful memories he has left me with. I LOVE YOU POPPA!
Laura Ling & Euna Lee, two courageous and brave Journalists have been sentenced to 12years each in North Korean Labour camps for nothing but trying to feed the world with knowledge.
Laura Ling, sister of The Views retired LISA LING, has a husband and a four year old daughter waiting for her to come home! I have little knowledge of Euna Lee's family status, however, I do know her loved ones are in turmoil as well knowing that our world, made up of segregated governments, has given power to such horrible and barbaric leaders and now we as a nation must adhere to the policy's of such leaders.
Get those women out of there!! If there are no safety measures in place for foreign visitors in Korea..DON'T LET PEOPLE TRAVEL TO KOREA!!!
OK ..I get the whole "JOB" thing and I even get that people feel the need to go the distance, but, WHY in Heavens name, would you go freely into a country that has already deployed nuclear weapons tests both above and under ground completely ignoring their agreement with the Northern Atlantic Treaty Organization & The United Nations!!!???
Why risk your life for a country that obviously feels no regard for YOUR life?? My prayers are with the families of both of these women and I see no peaceful solution. :(
I believe they have found and recovered wreckage and bodies from the Air France accident today. I hope answers and peace come quickly for those who have lost loved ones in this horrible event. My husband has flown Air France several times so it hits close to home knowing how sudden tragedy can strike.
Death comes so quickly for some, yet, so slowly for others. We all deal with loss of a loved one in different ways, however, being left behind to remember the gifts they have provided indeed should be looked upon as a wondrous thing.
