No Words
In the English language we have a word for a woman who loses her husband (widow), we have a word for a child who loses their parent (orphan), but we do not have a word for a parent who loses their child. Perhaps because of the pain and devastation that this type of loss leaves behind. I keep reading and hearing people say there are no words to describe what has happened in Newtown, CT and that is true in so many ways. There really isn't a word to describe this tragedy.
May the thoughts and care of others bring some peace to the communities directly touched by this senseless tragedy.
If you are feeling the urge to do something, please do.
Love, hug and squeeze everyone you care about extra today and tomorrow.
XO
