I've been watching the news non-stop all day. trying to get my head around this... it's why i wrote the essay. it's not just something that happened here, but it's been happening repeatedly in the PRC. In fact one happened today where a manaic with a knife sliced up 22 people before he was stoped. earlier there was a man who took an axe...

this is pure evil, and i don't understand why someone would do this.

He started with his mother and then went to the school where she worked and targeted those little babies. thsoe precious little monkeys so full of life and promise.

someone mentioned that he was jealous of the kids getting more of his mothers attention. but even that does not explain WHY he would do something this evil.

i've been crying for hours about this. doing web searches trying to find more infomration so i can try and understand this... it's how i found out about the string of people attacking cihldren in China this year.

i've been taking with people around the country... and finding out about their own fears, and wondering how to explain this to their children.

so i wrote the essay that i will be sending to a blog, it came from a discussion with a friend whose children are 'special needs' and they had been questioning her about what happened. and how she would explain it all to them. and i tol her that it's an evil act, and evil acts happen with you do not have enough love in your heart to push out all the evil that can go in.

she called me about an hour ago, and said that answer was what allowed her kids to go to sleep tonight.

I want to share this, with hope that others can hear it... and they will find strenght and truth. and get started on their way to healing this fear, this terror.
