An airplane crashed in our city yesterday. It was piloted by an idiot who believed his needs were not being met by the government. He got into his airplane and crashed it into an IRS building killing himself and one other person. He wanted to kill more people.
I was not anywhere close to the crash, but just that it occurred in my city where my children live enrages me. And scares me. And makes me sad.
I have control issues when it comes to my children. I like to pretend that I can keep them safe at all times. I lock my doors at night. I make sure they are safely tucked into their beds. I kiss them after saying prayers and then I am able to sleep believing that they are safe.
Then this happens.
It was hard to sleep last night.
It was hard to send the kids to school today.
Saying prayers for their safety helps me.
But it was still hard to send the kids to school today.

I don't understand people who do things like that. If he wanted to take his own life...fine, jump off a bridge. But the people who are working and doing there jobs are not responsible for whatever was going on with him.They were just people trying to make a living. I read where he burned his own house down too and that he left behind a wife and daughter. If so, he was an idiot who was selfish too. His wife will get no insurance money, all their belongings are gone and no home for his family.
It's a scary world we live in. We can't protect our children from crazy people like that unfortunately. We can just do our best as parents and love them.
Still praying for you all!!
P.S. my word verification was doggi, made me think of Pepper. :( I never even met her and I am crying for her.
It's terrible when things like this hit so close to home.
I'm glad you were nowhere near this and everyone in your family was safe.
You really wonder what happens in some peoples heads to make them do these type of things !
