On this day the unthinkable happened. The bombing in Manchester England was to say the least horrific. I send Love and Light to all the victims. This has sat with me now for two days and my own reaction has shocked me. In the past, my reaction would be to think that we need to go and blow these radical as****es off the face of the planet. I would cry for the victims and there loved ones. Watch every bit of news that I could come across. Not this time. It's not because it happens so often that I'm immune to it. It's more that I can't be sad for the souls that passed because I know they are in a place that is nothing but love and peace. I am however sad for the victims that survived because this is something they will probably never be able to put behind them. They will live with this horror for the rest of their physical lives. This saddens me. I'm heartbroken for the families of all the victims having to go through such heartbreak. I am sad for the bomber who was just a child himself. My mind cannot fathom how anyone so young can be influenced to commit such evil. Yet, I find myself not being able to sit in judgement. I find myself only able to send love to all through prayer. Yes, even for the young man who did this. The words that Jesus spoke as he was being tortured, "forgive them father, they know not what they do." Is the only way I can think now. This, to many, my seem cold and uncaring but in fact is just the opposite. Trust me when I say, it shocks me to feel this way. It seems my kick ass and take names later mentality is gone. I just know that the only important things any of us can do is to love everyone and to be of service.
