There are things that I will never understand...
Like what happened in Boston today.
Or in Newtown in December.
Or in NYC on September 11, 2001.
No matter who is behind any of the above (and there are countless more that I'm not citing), I just don't get it. People die, people are hurt what does it prove? (no big long debates here).
We are all made up of the same essential elements. As much as we want to be different, we are chemically the same. No matter what our race, religion, sex...We may have different blood types, but we all have hearts that pump our blood. And blood shed by one could just as easily be shed by another.
I am not naive enough to think that we can all hold hands and sing on the mountaintop with icy cold bottles of coke in our hands, but for a moment couldn't we all just realize that every single one of us are part of the human race. That for all the differences we are really just the same.
