The Organic Principles
Love is the virtue of the heart;
Sincerity the virtue of the mind;
Decision the virtue of the will;
Courage the virtue of the spirit.

Yes. What a terrible thing to happen
must admit my first thought was - where in USA, are any of my blogfriends near there?
great photos
Yes so sorry for the families too. It's a real curse you have in the US with this weapon thing. Glad your two kids are safe. We should honor and be grateful for the time we spend with our loved ones as we never know when it can suddenly end. xxx
Yes, absolutely terrible.
As I commented on Cheri's blog - how can relative easy access to guns and ammunition be tolerated by the general public when this is the posssible consequence? I find it unfathomable, tragic and extremely sad.
You just can't begin to imagine how those parents feel and what a waste of innocent young lives. Here in the UK our gun laws are so strict and incidents like this are exceptionally rare. If people don't have access to weapons, then the chances of this happening are significantly reduced. I am sure that you - and millions of other American parents - hugged your kids just a little tighter than normal last night.
I've been holding mine close, too - such dreaful news, we've been praying for all the families affected by this tragedy xx
Me too.
I had to restrain myself from going and getting my kids when I heard the news.
i think this is how we are all feeling. as a teacher, i am saddened because schools should be safe and caring places for children.
Such a terrible tragedy! I hugged my nieces extra tight before they left here last night after our Christmas get-together.
It is awful. Across the pond we are praying hard for all those affected.
Such an awful tragedy.
I think the older I get, the worse these tragedies seem to me. I could barely get through the news last night, and I've thought of those families over and over today.
I share your feelings, Rinda.
life is so fragile
thank you for sharing Rinda
oxo
Across the oceans, we too are saddened - thinking of you and your fellow citizens ...
You said it. So, so sad.
I have the same or similar thoughts to those before me Rinda.
