Today, we will be inundated with news about the bombings that happened at the Boston Marathon yesterday.
I have not quite put my thoughts together concerning this....
I was worried that a cousin of mine was in Boston, but was relieved to read on facebook that she is  in Baltimore.  Thank God.  I hope that none of her extended family were there.  
When 911 happened, my sister-in-law was in NYC.....and, thank God, she was not among the dead or injured.

TERRORISM.  NOT a four letter word, BUT, one of the 'dirtiest' in the English language.
The persons responsible for this, will learn, that America will carry-on!  It will  make our resolve all the stronger as a nation. That is the positive.  We will endure.
The negative....I am not going there at this time.............

My heart aches for those who were there and died or were hurt....and to the families of those persons.

Please, take a moment to pray and reflect...

for the recovering victims of the terrorist attacks,
 and for the families of all who have been injured or killed 
as well as
all those who have been charged with protecting lives from further terrorism
 and
for the recovery workers and first-responders
