Just now on my computer screen a pop-up
in red bold letters appeared.
“Breaking News!”
“Children, principal among the dead
in Newtown , Connecticut elementary school shooting!”
I read the article, then I watch the
short video. I don’t cry but my eyes get wet. I look at the picture of my
daughter on my desk and then back on the screen my eyes go.
I know that by now, all the news
agencies on the planet, TV, Internet, radio are abuzz and countless
commentators, bloggers, and Internet commons will be sharing their feelings
about this horror.
On one of the photos I see children in line, walking, holding each other by their shoulders. Some of them are looking in the asphalt, some are crying. All children and adults on the picture are looking terrified.

Reality fails me. Is this for real? Could there be anything worse than this?
