# re: The HIGH Price some have to pay for the unhappiness of others these days.... @ Monday, April 06, 2009 9:22 AM

Dear Joan:

It is a story as old as time and there are always times when the innocent get caught up with the misery of those who are unhappy.  All of the wars we have seen accomplish the same thing.  Destruction of the innocent.  I was numb with grief yesterday.  It was a sad Palm's Sunday for all of us.  Blessings to you for the post that expresses our outrage admirably.

I am saddened by all of these outrageous acts where people have involved others in their pain in an attempt to lash out and thereby taking the lives of others who have done nothing to cause them pain.

I must admit, I do not have the Holy Bible memorized, but there are a few things God continuously whispers in my ear when in doubt.  Remember, He/She will never put more on us than we can possible bare.  Now, this is a promise, and sometimes it can be a test, but we must realize, God knows just what we can take.  This I trust, as many times I look up and say, "I can't do this"...but...I can!
Hope that helps, because it sure does help me!
PS.  I am far from a religous fanatic, but, I do know the Bible is a very magickal book...well, the original...not so sure about the latest, revised versions...lol!
Blessings!!!

You make a good point about the good book.
It sure does SEEM sometimes that things could be more than we can bear....and time gives us perspective and objectivity on any given situation... :-)

I would have to agree with Mr Kelly that we are not offered more than we can handle. There is always a grander picture going on behind the scenes that we cannot see but- we are sure having to have faith in. Thanks Joan good blogging my dear as always.

Hugs,
Donna

Admittedly, it always saddens me to hear about the needless acts of violence and the innocent casualties that inevidably accompany the event.

But what concerns me most about these "mediasized" events, is that no one delves into societies treatment of the agressor which lead up to the person believing that no one cares in the first place.

If we all practiced a little more compassion and consideration for each other on daily basis without "expecting" something in return (and I am not talking about enabling or condoning bad behavior in any sense) I bet we'd see a dramatic downturn in the acts of agression occurring even in today's climate.

In any case, I feel for the families and wish them all the best.

Compassion is sadly lacking and lack of a sense of community also like that woman who was dead 18 months before ANYONE noticed? What is WRONG with THAT picture?

Joan, The woman who was un noticed for that long . . . is a blessing!  It makes us aware of how UN human our society is, and we need to CHANGE!!!

I hope that helps.

I would not like to think of that as a blessing as it was not a blessing to her, not a nice way to die and even if it means changes in the way that we might seek to see if our friends and neighbors are okay, and while we do need to change, neither her death or the death of a man who was 93 I think and froze to death in his own home with the money owed  to the electric company clipped in cash to the bill. That was TWO too many deaths.... it should not take that kind of thing to have us be so uncaring...sorry not in my opinion...I know there are places in Ireland were neighbors STILL call in on neighbors...one recent case where woman had not been seen for one and a half days and she had broken her arm and was unable to call for help, a nephew got in her window and helped her, that's how it SHOULD be....

Yes, I agree!  Even within families the neglect is incredible in some dysfunctions.

I guess, sometimes, when I get down about things like this I feel a loss for humanity.  

And I feel a responsibility to give HOPE, as it really doesn't matter the circumstances or the length of time we lived in this earth . . .

What matters is the process of growth, evolving forward . . . change brings this.
