Sad

I've been looking for news all day about Natasha Richardson's condition. How horrible, skiing one day with your son and then suddenly be brain-dead. She and Liam Neeson have always been one of those nice, long-married couples that you don't hear bad things about. And with a couple of teenage/preteen sons, it is so tragic. At any moment, without any notice, horrible things happen. Like those four teenagers killed by the drunk driver near Macomb Mall.

It's hard not to think that something horrible could happen, because horrible things do happen. You can feel lucky and blessed and happy and something terrible could happen. We have to live each day to its fullest and not live in fear. But oh, man, you hear stories like these and your hearts break for strangers who woke up one morning to find their lives changed forever.
