Horrified... Haunted... Heartbroken


Like most everyone just awakening to the news, I am completely horrified, haunted and heartbroken over the tragic events that befell the citizens of Moore, Oklahoma, yesterday afternoon.

In the tornado's wake, as the numbers rise and the stories grow sadder, our thoughts and prayers go out to the victims, their families, the first responders, and the wounded survivors.

With such profound devastation of this magnitude, one can only consider the children who were lost, knowing that with every death of a child, a part of the future diminishes.

Whatever I am dealing with this morning is of little consequence. My children are present and safe. My home is intact.

I can't imagine what this morning is like for all those folks in OKC. I am holding them in my prayers.

@ Lovebabz:

Indeed. Events such as this one really force us all to put things in their proper perspective.

We should all be snatching JOY wherever we can find it.

@ Roger:

"Beyond description" indeed. Words fail me man.

When I lived in the South I was really frightened of getting caught in the way of a tornado. They are so incredibly destructive and brutal. Photos of Oklahoma where this hit look like someone dropped a nuclear bomb.

@ Val:

I hear you, Val. Mother Nature's fury can be frightening, catastrophic & sadly... so often deadly.
