Hi Everyone,
Some of you noticed that I failed to get an email out last week.
I'm
sorry, but I was traveling last week on business and was not able to
send out an email.
The unbelievable tragedy at Virginia Tech is on all of our hearts. It
is almost unimaginable the horror, fear, and sorrow that was unleashed
in just a few moments of time. Events like this always cause us to
pause and think about life and loved ones. For me, I have made it a
habit to try to get to know the victims in news events like this. I
fear that there is so much death and bad news in our multi-media world
that soon people just become numbers or statistics. 33 people were
killed. That's one level of knowledge. A 79 year-old professor that
was a survivor of the Holocaust, a 4.0 GPA band member, a biker and
hiker, a future doctor, a researcher in motor skills for cerebral palsy,
a husband, a son, a daughter, a friend, ... ... ... This level of
knowledge is much deeper, and keeps alive that what died that morning
were not simply numbers, or anonymous bodies, but real, live people that
God loved, others loved, and so should I.
