So Tired and So Sad

Over the past few weeks things have been a bit daunting and with the rigors of the day and constant barrage of the nation news things could not look any bleaker so I have to say that I join Karen in saying I am tired too and sad and spending time in contemplation.
I am ALSO affected in my little corner of the world.

With the events of the past week, one sticks firmly in the grasp of my mind....
that quote by Robin Williams:

"No matter what people tell you, words and ideas can change the world"  

With the events of the past week, I truly believe that the "ideas" that Robin Williams presented to the world truly did and will have an impact on changing the world if albeit a small percentage. 

We do not as outsiders know the reasons or the hows or whys of the situation and we never will but the one thing that I find troubling is the lack of respect and the lack of dignity that has unfolded in the media.

What do we need on this earth to grow and move past the issues, concerns, grief and sorrows?

Thyme - A TRUE healer in the plant world.....ironic
that TIME is also what helps the healing process....

We all need room to grow and we all need people (even though some of us think we can 'go it alone') and we need the caring and tenderness of the world to wrap it's arms around us and tell us it is going to be okay.
We need time to process the last few devastating weeks in our world and we all need to say a little prayer for those that are suffering because we can only imagine their pain and wish that they did not have to walk in their own shoes right now.
 
It is going to be okay...
It will be okay...
Peace...
Love...
Many hugs today and tomorrow...
