Horrible awful tragedy. There are no words....
So,So, SAD. What is wrong with people? My heart aches for the parents and students. It even brought our President to tears. The big question is...What can be done???
And just think, there are those who would like teachers to start packing - just in case. More guns is not the answer. Cheers!!
I think we need to look beyond the bubble we live in to reach out to those who are lost, challenged, mentally ill and broken in some way. Looking a stranger in the eye or a smile goes a long way to validate another's existence, and, it doesn't cost anything.
