I hope I never go numb to the world around me.
I hope, despite how horrible and sad and angry I feel waking up to the news of another act of violence, that I never grow comfortable reading the news.
I hope I cry everytime I see the images of crumpled lives.
I hope that at some point in my lifetime we won’t wake up to the news of another mass shooting or act of terrorism.
For now, I hope we continue to foster love and support for each other through these unimaginable acts. I hope we never forget the value of each and every life. I know a hug seems like a small offering on days of despair, but if it can give some bit of comfort, that is what I have to give.
