I guess most of you have heard what happened in Iran the other day... Calling it a disaster is a bit of an understatement, when the number of dead are feared to number around the population of a medium-sized Swedish city and the number of wounded twice again that many, it passes the point of being a disaster and becomes something totally incomprehensible.
The sheer scope of it all... I can't even begin to understand it! All I feel is a deep sadness at the loss these people have suffered and will continue to suffer. Words are insufficient to properly describe what is happening there.
I'm afraid there's not much I can do, other than send these people my thoughts, though that is of course wholly insufficient, as none of them will ever even know it... :'-(
With things like this in mind, our lives seem so short and fragile. So why do we do so many stupid things, hurting each other, and ignoring each other? Why do we get so mad at each other all the time?? Why do we harbor all these stupid grudges??? :-[
Why???? Our lives are too brief for that kind of sillyness...  ??
