Life and Death

Monday, April 16th, 2007, another black day in American History. 33 lives, all it took was one man, one thought, to take away 33 lives, including that of his own.

Today, the Virginia Tech news is no longer the top story. For today, up to 200 people had been killed in Baghdad.

Here I am, breathing. This is life.

There they are, 5807 miles away, lying in deep silence. Reason unknown.

My heart aches.
