I have cried over the news. I especially remember hearing about the children killed in the Oklahoma City bombing. I was driving to work when it came on the radio and had to pull my car over, I was so upset. I think it was Robert Burns who said, "Man's inhumanity to man makes countless thousands mourn."

I took a long vacation from the news, and that helped. When I see a disturbing headline, I still won't read the article like in that gang rape thing.

You are powerless over the tragedies that happen daily in this world. All you can do is resolve to treat those around you as well as you can. Your kindness can make the difference in another person's life, and that's what matters.

Happy birthday!
