It amazes me to see the lack of regard that many have for human life unless it is their own. And when the moment comes when they are in need, they must have everyone's else's skills, care, empathy and undivided attention available. There are still things, like how people can be so self-centered and thoughtless, that stir up my inner self - even at the age of 84 . You take care and thanks again.

I have been grieving over this horrible event from Black Friday and while trying to make some sense of it by reading the news, I see that two shoppers were shot to death in a Toys R Us in California on the same day! I was taught that you can't make sense out of nonsense. So, i wonder, how can people be so thoughtless or self-centered that they don't have even a moment to think through their actions? I read today that Walmart is responsible because they didn't have enough security. I am sorry, but I don't think grown, civilized people should have to be monitored like a bunch of crazed animals. If this were a situation in which people were starving and only a few crusts of bread were going to be available, I would understand the hysteria. But these people were just greedy, unruly and thoughtless consumers who thought nothing of pushing past those who had been waiting in an orderly fashion to buy what? Christmas presents? God forgive us for becoming such an idolistic society that this kind of heinous crime was committed under the pretense of buying presents to celebrate a Holy day. How utterly shameful. I keep wondering if those who actually broke down the door and ran over other human beings are thinking about what they have done or if they assume they were not to blame? I wonder if they can enjoy using TVs and toys they bought at such a sacrifice. Thank you so much for bringing sanity to my mind today. God bless you. I am so glad I stumbled onto your blog today.
