Morality is not determined by the church you attend nor the faith you embrace. It is determined by the quality of your character and the positive impact you have on those you meet along your journey

Something to keep in mind as we help each other deal with the shock and the fear left over from yesterday's tragedy.
Aww jeez, sobbing my eyes out. So wise. The compassion of our sister/fellow humans is limitless, and yet easily overlooked in our outrage at the deluded actions of a few.
I have no words this morning, just like I didn't have any last night. Or rather, earlier this morning as I sat at my computer until 3 am, trying to get information. Luckily, in this case, I don't have television, just the internet. I don't think I could handle the media right now.
Thank you for reminding us there are truly people in the neighborhood who are good.
As I told my daughter while we watched Return of the Jedi on Sunday (the Emperor is a bit scary)...the good always wins.
The good will always triumph over the evil. It may take a while and it may hurt a lot to get there, but ultimately the good will win.
What a great parent to point that out. What a great blogger you are, Gryphen, to share this sentiment with us. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThank you Jesse....you made me cry this morning.
ReplyDeleteGentle words from a gentle teacher... Thank you for the reminder, Gryphen.

I wish I could watch Mr. Rogers right now.
