I'm going to try this again. Glad you enjoyed the Olympics and a bit of a view of Canada. We are truly blessed to live in this country!
I am trying to limit my tv time devoted to Covid , but Covid has taken a back seat to the senseless tragedy in our Province over the past weekend.
We live approximately 3 hours from the areas affected and our daughter in Halifax about an hour . Our other daughter lives on the other side of the country on Vancouver Island... from sea to sea. We are all trying to wrap our heads around this... I'll be doing something and all of a sudden the tears come.
One thing I've learned along the way to seniorhood , if that's a word, is that we do not have enough, what I call doctors of the mind. and if we are fortunate enough to find one, that we connect with, we are truly fortunate. We still are waiting to learn if there are more bodies in burned out structures, homes along the way or other of the 15 or 16 crime scenes. And why, why did this man do what he has done. Nova Scotians are close, we do for each other, wave at folks we don't know, stop for folks to cross the street, and cars to take there turn at stop signs... doors for the most part are open to friends and neighbours, Why oh why when life is so difficult in so many other ways, did this have to come along... and was this maybe as my grandmother used to say...something in this man's mind the straw that broke the camels back. these things don't come about over night.. obviously well planned and executed... when and why did this obsession begin.
Bless those that are grieving... bless those that are at these crime scenes every day trying to figure out "why". take care...stay safe!
