Sunday's New York Times simply tells us there are almost 100,000 people who have died from this virus, and then it lists names, which cover the front page. I wouldn't think this would be a controversial thing, but apparently it is. Steve Grant, who has worked for KY3 out of Springfield for decades, posted The Times page to his Facebook page. And then the craziness was let loose. People started telling us how many people die in car wrecks and from heart disease. Then others brought up abortion and want to know why we are upset about this virus when we voluntarily kill babies. Then there's the crowd who think it's all a hoax, and others who go off the deep end simply because they've been waiting for a reason to do so. I don't get it, not at all. If people are hurting, we should offer a helping hand. If people are sad, we can comfort them. If people are frightened, let's offer them hope. Does it do any good to say, "So what? Such and such happened and it was worse than this!" I don't understand where our compassion has gone. I could speculate on the events which have brought us to this emotionally-stunted place, but I'd rather think about how we can return to Love.
“But peace isn’t determined by circumstances outside us. Peace stems from forgiveness. Pain doesn’t stem from the love we’re denied by others, but rather from the love that we deny them.” ― Marianne Williamson, Return to Love
