Well today in our community (Fountain City/ Knoxville, TN) about 10 miles from our house there was another school shooting (Central High School) that has rocked the news world. Two sixteen year old boys got into an altercation and one brought a gun with him and shot and killed the other boy. The news reports that this was not a random event and that it stemmed from an earlier incident, nonetheless there was a human life lost due to this random act of violence.
Scary to think the day you send your child off to school for what is to be a normal day and then something like this happens and your whole world changes immediately. This is not how you want a new school year to begin and you never expect something like this to happen in your area. But I guess we are not protected from the evil that is becoming ever so prevelent in our society. I pray for this family and their sudden loss of their sixteen year old son, I pray for our community and this school.
But it just brings me back to the title of my post for the day, you never know when what day may be your last. So take the time and tell those you love how much they mean to you!
