No Words

Driving into work this morning, I got stuck in standstill traffic and rerouted three times.

While that might normally be cause for frustration.  Today it brought me to tears.


Over the weekend a police officer was slain here in cold blood.  It has been a hideous story on all levels.

Today is the funeral.

And the traffic I was stuck in was police, fire and EMS vehicles from every corner of the state.  Hundreds and hundreds of them.

I didn't know this officer.  I don't know his family.  But I do know that I was horrified by the act.  And moved by the images I saw this morning.

I wish he and his family and friends peace.
And I wish the world was filled with a little more love and a lot less hate.
