I remember these incidents very well. The mosque shootings get tangled with others from other countries in my memories. The family mowed down, going for a walk. A simple walk. Together as a family. Not many people do that with regularity. All together. Walking. It’s beautiful. And to see it become a tragedy is heartbreaking. I can only imagine what you and your sister and her family must feel. A visible target for those who hate. I always felt a target because I’m a woman, but this is a whole other level. I’m truly sorry that you have to walk into any place and feel fear.

This is the mantra I was given this morning in my meditation about compassion--for others and yourself.

“May you find ease, even in the midst of difficulty.”

Appalling crimes. When these things happen, humanity as a whole is diminished. Thank you for keeping the memories of the victims alive, Noha, and peace be with you.
