On the morning of Tuesday, October 16th, the
world is less than it was due to the loss of a beloved woman. I see how many
lives she touched and how utterly undeserving of harm she was and am at a loss
to understand how anyone could want to cause her harm. I didn’t know her
personally, but like most have read about her and actually have friends who
knew her and they are hurt and lost because of an animal’s covetous depravity.
I look inward and think of all the pain I have caused and
lies I have told along with all the selfish acts that I have engaged in. I
think that I deserve that outcome more than a woman, who by all counts was universally
loved. I am not claiming that I deserve death at all, but on the karmic scale I
am sure I am heavier on the universes scale that this beautiful soul.
Hold your loved ones close and hang on to what you have in
your life. I am grateful that I have the chance to be with my wife and kids,
but am horrified at the prospect that they would be taken from me without any
warning or reason. I have experienced a family member murdered and I can tell
you that there is no justice that will equate the loss that family has felt,
but I do know that nothing that murderous coward could receive is even an
approximation of what he deserves.
We all have to live a little more and love a little harder
so that this amazing spirit is being honored. We are all lucky. Anyone who woke
up this morning and told there family that they are loved is lucky to have them
be with them to hear it. You are blessed.
Promise to live for those that cannot and take a piece of
them with you on life’s adventures so that her soul can share the experience
with you.
