A hopeful reminder…

Posted on April 15, 2013April 15, 2013 by Jacky Hackett

Senseless tragedy today, I can’t stand to even tune into the news coverage at this point.  What I have seen glimpses of, overwhelming heartbreak.  I needed this reminder that all hope is not lost in the crazy messed up world…

Patton Oswald Boston Bombing

My thoughts are with everyone affected by this horrific tragedy in Boston.

    My son and I were a mere block from the explosions today. Fortunately we left about 2 hours prior to meet my sister at her office for lunch before heading home to the western part of the state. I can’t bear to watch the news anymore either. I’m so grateful to be home safe. Thanks for sharing this Jacky.

    I thought about you today. I didn’t think you were running but, since you didn’t get to run NY, I thought maybe you might be there. Such a nice day…a marathon, a patriotic holiday, the start of baseball season…and some douchebag has to ruin it for everybody. Sickening.

      Sickening, exactly!

      Yes, thanks for sharing. Great post from Mr. Oswalt, I couldn’t agree more.

        Glad you are safe. I am sure the huge swing of emotions was almost as exhausting as the run itself.
