What's Up with this world????

So today I am wondering:  what's up with this world?  Innocent families going to the movies for a night out to watch a new movie are victims of a young man, with so much promise for a future, decides to use his crazy antics to kill and maim so many others.  I can't seem to put my mind around the WHY's of such an act of violence.

I'm sure he knew WHY he was doing this...but it had nothing to do with the reality of the world I live in.

This brings much sadness to my heart and I'm sure to many others too!

So for all the people touched by the awful event, I say a prayer that they not lose their FAITH in the human kingdom; this too shall pass.   I want to erase this event from my consciousness but that would be just as bad.   We can not run away from the world...as it is...but with the GRACE of God we can move forward and try to make some sense out of this event, and use the knowledge from this event to see that it doesn't happen again!    

Something went very wrong ...  and someone... somewhere should have picked up on this man's actions...long before this event happened.

We need to make friends...and notice...if they are suffering in silence about something.  Perhaps some kindness could have changed the awful events from happening.    I don't know, but I do know that IF someone asks for help; they should be directed to a area where they can receive it.
