An Awful Anniversary

The closer we get to the holidays, the closer we get to the anniversary of the Newtown massacres in Connecticut.
My heart is aching over this.
In part, I'm very hurt to know our collective conscience has withered from loving our guns so much more than we love our babies...our small, helpless humans. Something is choking off  the blood flow to our morality muscle- and we seem to relish the twisted rush that's giving us. .
Going forward, we are going to need more than our guns. We are going to need God to have mercy on our immortal souls. And for that, as well as for the children in whose honor we have changed absolutely nothing, so that we could mourn them, I do sincerely pray.
