[Closed] Oh dear GOD, WHY???????

You expressed it well Doug. We, as a society, need to reflect. Maybe all of us should pay more attention to one another...I just don't know. Many people don't even know their neighbors. Everyone seems to be wrapped up in their own lives.

Heart breaking and I still have grandkids in school.......

Ilene and I are soooo sad by this evil thing,

I wanted to post earlier today and just had to take time to even know what to say,
Our hearts and PRAYERS go out to all involved in this horrific act and we will continue to pray for them and our country.
We also are in prayer for the Oregon mall shooting victims.
May God grant peace where it seems there is none to ALL involved.

I was at work today in a planning session with about 45 people from all over New England.

One of the women with us is from CT and her husband is a SWAT team member and was one of the first responders to the scene today. He said it was the worst thing he has ever seen. So sad! I came home and gave my 4-year old grandson the biggest hug and kiss.

That is great, the hug and kiss I am talking about

All of our kids live right here within about 10 miles of us and we never get to see them.
It seems that our kids and grand kids are just to busy to come see us and since some of them don't even have a home to call their own we don't know where to go see them.
HUG them and LOVE them while you can.
We never thought it would be this way and we love them all very much.
Just sayin LOVE THEM while you can.

Don't feel bad Dick, My son is within 7 miles w/ 3 grandchildren & says You & Judy are the only ones who come and Play with my kids but still requires an appointment to come visit oh and don't stay longer than the time he said. My other son lives across the street with his daughter and we seldom see either because she is 17 and doesn't associate with Old People unless she needs money then she's on the doorstep. We also make his $2,000 a month house payment. I was always very Family Oriented so it must be something in the water or their school systems. Oh Well we "Love Them" My ex has not seen the baby since he was born almost 3 years ago. For a long time I blamed me because I got a Divorce some 40 years ago, but no more! I'm a Pretty Good Guy that has made a lot of things happen for all of them they just don't appreciate it. Oldest Just got his college degree (My expense) Youngest got a $100,000.00 loan and he paid back all but the last $23,000 which we "Gifted" to him and his bride. Others live differently.

Don't beat yourself silly trying to understand it isn't possible to figure it out.

I just sponsored a convict and he's more appreciative toward me than my sons. You can't Win in this society!
GOD BLESS THESE VICTIMS OF THESE SENSLESS ACTS jUDY'S AND MY HEART GO OUT TO THOSE FAMILIES. Where do these wack jobs come from?

May the Lord be with these families and give them everlasting peace. May God grant them all the help they need to make their lives whole again. May he Bless Them and Keep them. I just don't understand it. It's outside of the way I think & reason.

AMEN Dave, no reason to this at all.

Dave, thanks for the kind words.

God really is in control even when nothing makes any sense.
Couldn't make it without HIM for direction and strength.
