I honestly have no idea how to put into words what I’ve been thinking/feeling all weekend.  All I know is that my thoughts and prayers are with those that were affected by the horrific act of violence in Newtown.  I pray that with time they find the strength, love and peace needed to move forward, and that they always find comfort in the memories of their loved ones.

While I can’t find the words to articulate the heaviness in my heart, I wanted to share a song written about Newtown that I happened to find.  It sums up what I’m sure many of us have been thinking over the past few days.

Standing With You
by John Ciambriello

Watching the news
Pictures are words
Tears I’m not holding in

Three of my own
I can’t comprehend
For you, what a day it’s been

We’re standing with you
Because your heart is overwhelmed
Feels like there’s nothing we can do
But we’re trying on your shoes
We may never understand
But know this much is true
We are standing with you
Standing with you

Miles away
Safe in my home
I wish I could be with you

A message of love
Finding the words to say
From a friend you never knew

Have a good Monday.  And please be sure to spread love and kindness wherever you go.  The world needs it…lots and lots of it.
