Today I had a good day despite the tragedy of the day. I first went to Journeys, and then went home, and then went out again to a fun class. There, I talked to Noah&Anna and listened to lectures and made some cordage out of raffia. I had a lot of fun doing the class! After that, I went home and had some dinner and then had some supper. After that, I did a lot of milling about until bed-time. Huzzah for Noah&Anna! People probably shouldn't have gone to far into revenge about prior events. I think that they shouldn't have gotten obsessed with safety either! Although I do recognize the typical absolute horror of the starting cause, I think that revenge/safety obsession was extremely rude!
I do agree with you that revenge is not the appropriate response to this or any tragedy. As Gandhi said, "An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind."
