Nothing to Say

I don’t feel like writing about anything today in light of the unspeakable tragedy that occurred this morning in Connecticut. What is there to say? Who could pull the trigger on a five year old? It’s sickening. I’m sad and angry. And I just wish I could give all those people their lives back. I wish I could fill up the hole in those parents’ hearts. I wish I had any hope whatsoever that we could, as a society, do something to make tragedies like this less common and less deadly. But I don’t even know if we can force the House of Representatives to hold a hearing on this massacre. I’m just feeling frustrated.
