Very touching, and we stand with you in sharing these feelings. Tragically, the ripple effect harms us all as we internalize what we learn of these "instances"... It's what members of humanity feel when Evil affects our brothers and sisters. (Boston & Mumbai are two more cities to add to your list, and I know there are many many more.)
A beautiful tribute .... we just have to remember our world is full of beautiful kind people and the ones who try to cause us hurt and pain are a very small minority .... love and kindness will endeavour!
Thank you Jerome on behalf of everyone from the North West of England who was caught up in the horrible attack in Manchester. I would add Palestine to your list.
@chillen Thank you, Chillen! Of course you are right: My list is incomplete - and it must (unfortunately) remain fragmentary. We learn daily what people can do to others.
Thanks for the great response to the picture I shared with you. It touches me very much. There is still much to say about a world as we wish it. But I think it must be a world without violence - neither physically nor mentally. And we need to think about what we can contribute to it.
I greatly appreciate your visits.
Thank you very much, Taffy, for your empathize.
I added New York to the list.
