Selfish

This morning I awoke thinking about how selfish my post from yesterday was. After all, I had only seen the results of a horrible accident; neither I nor my family members nor my friends were hurt or killed. I think it's reasonalble to be sad whenever a life is lost, particularly a young life, as turned out to be the case in yesterday's accident. Sometimes the way I tie things together in my head doesn't come across as well on paper (or post). I don't think I am generally selfish (although maybe my wanting you to know I'm not involves a certain amount of selfishness). I'm not going to try to tie anything together today. I will simply apologize for seeing another family's tragedy as part of my example of the fragile human condition and the way in which the pendulum swings back and forth. And I hope you and your family are safe and healthy.
