Every now and then a certain something comes along and turns your world upside down. Whether it be a movie, a song, or an item in the news. For me, the past week has been full of such atrocities. Shootings at colleges occurred every week day last week. Scary. This always puts me a little on edge as I work at a college. Not to mention its another bleak reminder of the world I've chosen to bring a child into. Now couple those news stories with the tragic death of the farmer who's property adjoins my parents. Yeah, it's shaping up to be a pretty grim January.
