words aren't quite enough. this is a sad first entry... but tragically fits in with the "theme" of this blog...
human life really could be described in terms of "seeing through a glass darkly" to quote a man much wiser than myself... and events like this really do press the limits of our human capabilities for understanding ("seeing")...
my heart goes out to those who were "left behind"... first to the families whose sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, mothers and fathers, wives and husbands will never return home. then to the friends, who are left behind merely with memories, empty rooms, and the dreadful thought that they never got to say goodbye...
life is so precious and so precariously short. for being as independent and ambitious and presumptuous as we are....human beings are still so frighteningly fragile.
