An Amazing post. As I sit in my lovely office reading New Means, I realize I have never suffered as these dear innocent people are suffering. My past trauma is exactly that, past - and the people I cherish today are safe and warm in their own homes. Why are we so fortunate? My heart is in Palestine and Maine and I desperately want to hold these mourners close and hear them as they cry out in sadness and pain - but I'm in my own home far away from them, safe and protected. I am no better than the worst of those suffering. . .

Thank you for this thoughtful post. I agree. As long as I'm breathing I will work towards a peaceful world where all can flourish.
