So I have tried not to post about upsetting things very often. I am not sure why I don't post about them, I guess I like to try and remember the good things that happen. That is not to say that I won't start posting about things that upset me.But today I can't seem to shake the gloom and disappointment I am feeling about this world. I know I am generalizing when I lump the entire "world" into my categorization, but it just seems easier today to generalize.
Last night they found the body of a darling little 7 year old girl that went missing 2 days ago. I think I have probably cried about 3 or 4 times over this news. I didn't know her or her family. But the thought that anyone could harm a child in any way devastates me.
I think it is because now I am a mother and I have a child. I pray everyday that God will keep her safe and out of danger. I don't know what I would do if she was ever harmed.
So today I am struggling with the world. Why do people in this world do the things they do? Why would anyone harm this beautiful girl, or any child for that matter?
I know that there are good people in the world...and I feel blessed that I know so many good people. But today the "bad people" of the world are all I can think about.
So to all the mom's in the world...go home and hug your babies a couple of extra times tonight, keep them safe, and most of tell them how much you love them.
Sorry about the "ranting"
