University Students at Virginia Tech University morn the loss of fellow students.
Now reported by the Associate Press -- a death toll of 31 and 20 something more are wounded. The deadliest school shooting in history and a tragic loss.
From what we know at this point, a dormitory shooting at 7:15AM resulted in the loss of at least one, possibly 2 students. Hours later, a classroom in a science and engineering building was taken hostage and mass fatalities ensued.
Wrong Place -- Wrong Time -- Not Even! Your in school, exactly where your schedule says you are supposed to be. How can any of these events be the luck of the day -- these events had nothing to do with luck, karma, or just plain wrong place/wrong time, it was all hindsight.
We like to think that as long as we do everything by the book, nothing bad will ever happen to us. This seems so false to me and plays up to the live life to the fullest statement. Why settle for being unhappy when you deserve happiness? Why settle for half-way when you deserve the have the whole kit-kabob? Let me just fill you in -- I deserve everything I desire and I will work hard to get it! I do not need someone else to supply my happiness or fulfillment.
Next note: After this past weekend and the happenings of late, I have only solidified my belief that to bring a child into this madness would really be an injustice to the child.
Ultimately: The world is destroying itself -- Really, PEOPLE (MANKIND)is destroying the world -- even if it is only one body at a time, and while this is sad and so very not uplifting, I truly think there is a cold hard truth behind it.
