Jo,
My thoughts & prayers are with you & your fellow
Australians, & all the others who were targeted by
these terrorists. Life is so precious, as you say.
Sometimes we get so caught up in our own little worlds
we forget about the big world around us. I hope all of
here can offer you a measure of comfort at this time.
Take Care,
Rita in AZ
