Thread: I cried today

Nothing horrific, nor near Niagara Falls style...but almost a tear.

It was caused by a series of images from a suicide bombing in Sri Lanka this week. A group of muslims are celebrating in a parade, and near the rear, you see (picture-by-picture) an explosion. The aftermath shows people dying, dead, or horrifically / mortally wounded. I didn't think about it, I didn't force it, but my eyes just welled up.

How can such an atrocity still exist in our world?

I'm not writing this to share a viewpoint, or to make a viewpoint known, or to start a conversation about terrorism...or even to share that it frustrates me that this stuff happens still.

I just wanted to say--somewhat publically--that I greatly dislike what the world is becoming, and am vowing to do whatever I can to help fight the violence and atrocities that are beleaguring the innocent people worldwide.
