 There is nothing to say right now. I was in ignorance on Tuesday until I wasn't.

How do we bear the most terrible news? We are the mother of the boy with the gun. We are the mother of the dead child on a classroom floor. We are the law enforcement person who rescues their child but not others from the deadly building. We are the governor saying words that don't make sense, that continue to harm. 


And that's all I have. I do not understand my fellow humans.

Yes, there's no understanding. We see through the glass darkly -- whatever that means. I just finished reading Heather Cox Richardson's letter for the night -- the story is mind-boggling.
