  1. Simply said, a simple truth.
    Why is it so difficult for tortuous terrorists to comprehend?

    1. Thanks Judith – I think it’s time to stop glamourising these people. They are simple criminal thugs with automatic weapons. There is no ‘glory’ in their behaviour.

  2. Something for which i am grateful – the power of words.

    1. Words endure Colline 🙂

  3. Some very profound truths have moved forward in the tide of grief. What a sad time.

    1. It is a time for us all to stand against criminal thugs with guns – not against people having open and honest debates.
