Are We There Yet?

Why is no one talking about the school shooting?

All morning, I kept waiting for someone else to post something on this blog about the latest school shooting in Colorado.

As I tab between programs on my computer, trying to get some work done, Internet headlines keep flashing across my screen revealing new details about the incident that tragically took the life of a young woman and shattered the lives of others who were simply too close for comfort.

I'm stunned that no one has posted anything. Is it a sign that it's a subject too painful for any of us to talk about?

Are others not wondering whether our kids are safe when we send them on the bus or down the street to school each day?

Do we feel like it's been talked about over and over but, like terror attacks, there's nothing we can do but hope and pray it doesn't happen again?
