Selfish Desires

08.30.2010

I read a story about a guy who shot and killed his ex-girlfriend and 2 other people at a birthday party and then later killed himself. The ex-girlfriend and he had two children together who are both, I believe, under the age of 5. Now they have neither parent and have to live with the fact that one parent killed the other.

I understand that life happens. I understand that there are situations that are out of my and our control. I understand that this isn’t the first nor the last time such a tragedy will occur.

But the selfishness that adults have (grounded in insecurity) can wreak such havoc and my heart aches for those kids and their families…
