It is a disaster that we are still here, in this time of guns and violence. I hope one day we grow above this, but we cannot do it unless enough of us stand up and saying we’re going to. It seems every time we do, something thwarts us. I despair. And yet, writing about it is so important. Respect.
Yes, and depressing that in a few days it’ll probably fade from everyone’s attention once again until the next time….and then the discussions will begin again, and nothing will be done again, and on and on. I think it’ll take an evolution of human consciousness before there’ll be true change.

They’re all talk, no action when it comes to gun control. The insanity is that anything goes…. Meanwhile, I fear for my grandchildren. 💔

I think you’re right, Betty. “An evolution of human consciousness”.

So short but so much power. Although those families appreciate the prayers of the people in charge, they need the action more!
