We woke up this morning to the news of not one but two more mass shootings in the USA. We have been living in Panamá for the past three months and although I do check the news daily we had become a bit insulated from the day to day happenings in our home country…until this morning when we heard about the tragic shootings in El Paso and Dayton. It was heart wrenching. We wonder if things will ever change or if this is really the new normal. It seems like there is something dark growing in the heart of our country to make people hate one another so much and for no good reason. Is this the best we can do?
If we as a country don’t find a way to seek some common ground and work together on solutions and to making things better Nancy and I fear for the future. And now we grieve for the victims…
All for now.
Saludos, Craig
Hi guys. First things first – Karla and I along with the rest of the family are safe. I want to thank you, on behalf of our community, for your thoughts and prayers for the victims and their families. Yesterday was a horrible day here in El Paso. We will bounce back and get things back in order as a city but it will take some time.
I don’t know why our country seems to be going backwards but whatever needs to happen to change the course it’s on, it needs to happen fast.
