Today’s Tragedy

I would like to extend my condolences to all those affected in the Aurora, CO shooting today. I am saddened that these acts of violence are continuing in our country and that my generation has had to grow up with these awful memories and recollections. Seeing a movie in a movie theater on the night of its premiere is an exciting moment especially for a movie that has been highly anticipated. It is the type of activity that enables all of us for maybe just two hours to leave our reality behind and enter someone else’s creation. It upsets me that today’s event has made those around us terrified of this – terrified of something that was made to be enjoyable.

My prayers are with all of the victims tonight.
