This terrible, unbelievable tragedy in France...

It's awful what happened - this should never have happened...man against man....a terrorist against ordinary people.....this man, this terrorist...he too is a human being - no, I should only say being because the humanness has been taken out of him........inflicting this sort of pain on other human beings.....??? what can justify this? what went so wrong in his evolution to turn this being into a monster?

How can killing innocent people solve the terrorists' issues? Are they looking for attention to their problems? These kind of acts will only turn the world against them...or do they do this for larks knowing that nothing is going to come out of it? they have nothing to lose or gain?

How does one return to normalcy? How does one remove the hate from the heart? Will a 'pitiless' retaliation solve the problem? Will hatred heal the wounds inflicted by hatred?

There are many theories doing the rounds.......much advice from the wise......much planning and plotting on how to deal with this, the latest in the series of terrorist attacks that have happened and that are waiting to happen....

For now....my love and energy goes out to all those whose lives were so brutally cut short, who have left behind families....loved ones...

......and are now memories...

While we continue to search for something familiar to hang on to while we deal with our loved ones not being with us...while we deal with the devastating pain of separation...
