What to write?  There are no focused thoughts.  Attempting to care, understand, stay engaged, contribute, creates overwhelming turbulence of heart and mind.  Murders, betrayal, confusion, spin, lies, lack -
it's all too big to hold.

What to do? The sun still shines, neighbors still  smile, children still hug, dogs still give kisses, minds still think, hearts still love and good will towards others is still evident. 

It's not in my paper, it's not on my screen, it's not on my homepage but it is experienced.
It is my soul's comfort food when the world is just too immense, too harsh, too brutal. 
Give comfort.
