Great insight, Tonia, hope it teaches you to live each moment. I didn’t know @megapixel either, but have become fascinated by her. She was so young & beautiful & talented. What a horrific tragedy. If you look at her blog http://www.megporter.com you will find eerie entries asking if we missed her. There is also a haunting video of her singing (very well) “Killing Me Softly” titled ‘The Things I Do!’. All Prayers to her family, especially her Mom.

I often think about those who were lost in genocide … I don’t want to but somehow I have to. And then I have to go on, because there is no other real alternative.

You hit the nail on the head, Tonia, when you wrote: “The worst happens, and then the next day dawns…” (Apologetic) welcome to the adult world. You can bemoan the cruelty of life, or admire the resurgent spirit that keeps on going in the face of that cruelty. It was reading about the Holocaust that brought this situation into my view, at about 20 years of age. It is sad knowledge, but part of reality. Chin up! Love. Grandfather
