Small town, Big tragedy.
Hi there.
My little town has been famous for several things, the pump of a wave, the sweet aftertaste in the wine. Now we are focused on for mass destruction of life.
I didn't know the family, but rubbed shoulders with the Grandmother many times. Several people I know knew them directly, and I am trying to support as best I can.
The media are everywhere, pointing out that something awful has happened when all you want to think about is about buying milk or something equally as unimportant.
Last night I knew it was what it was, that there was no threat to others - but still I checked the locks more times than normal, and felt vulnerable. Everywhere people are saying the person who did it must have mental illness, and I don't know what to say.
This has no direct reason to effect me, but it has. A violent, volatile past catching up with me maybe.
Sending you all every thought of safety in the world.
