My heart is aching today with the news of what has happened in Boston. My prayers and blessings are with all those who were there and who have loved ones who were there. I can't even imagine. There are some glimmers of light in all the dark, though. The incredible number of people running to help in the aftermath of the chaos, and the outpouring of love and support from people everywhere. Then, I saw this statement from Patton Oswalt, and thought it just about says it all:

"Boston. Fucking horrible.

I remember, when 9/11 went down, my reaction was, 'Well, I've had it with humanity.'

But I was wrong. I don't know what's going to be revealed to be behind all of this mayhem. One human insect or a poisonous mass of broken sociopaths.

But here's what I DO know. If it's one person or a HUNDRED people, that number is not even a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a percent of the population on this planet. You watch the videos of the carnage and there are people running TOWARDS the destruction to help out. (Thanks FAKE Gallery founder and owner Paul Kozlowski for pointing this out to me). This is a giant planet and we're lucky to live on it but there are prices and penalties incurred for the daily miracle of existence. One of them is, every once in awhile, the wiring of a tiny sliver of the species gets snarled and they're pointed towards darkness.

But the vast majority stands against that darkness and, like white blood cells attacking a virus, they dilute and weaken and eventually wash away the evil doers and, more importantly, the damage they wreak. This is beyond religion or creed or nation. We would not be here if humanity were inherently evil. We'd have eaten ourselves alive long ago.

So when you spot violence, or bigotry, or intolerance or fear or just garden-variety misogyny, hatred or ignorance, just look it in the eye and think, 'The good outnumber you, and we always will.'"

That was very well said indeed. I am slightly afraid now for the Marine Corps Marathon, especially since the Marines then to be a target, but fuck if I am going to let them stop me.

Thanks! I can't wait. It is a healthy was to fulfill my masochism tongue It is also just in my genes, my whole family is super active. My brother is a bike mechanic, sister and dad both have completed the marathon. I mainly decided to do it because my sister's husband was going to be doing it with her, but he had to deploy. So I get to get in super good shape, be proud of myself, and be there for my sister when her other half is gone. Plus running is like meditation to me.

I actually called out of work today. Too much going on in my head. I hope you have a wonderful day today smile
