A sleepy town

Intensely sad. A co-worker murdered. Shot by her own husband. Did he feel grief? Remorse? Pain? Whatever he felt, he then turned the gun on himself and took his own life. Both were found by their thirteen year old daughter. What that poor girl is thinking, I will never know. How her life has been shattered, I can only imagine. Her life will never be the same. She will never be able to be held by her mother or loved by her father again. 

What causes people to be so selfish? Why do they hurt and even kill the ones they "love?" The girl will never be the same. I only hope and pray that she will be able to recover from such a tragic loss. Her father's rage has torn her life to shreds. She will always remember finding her parents dead, in her own home, by the hand of her own father.

How bad was his life that he had to murder his own wife? He wasn't homeless. He wasn't poor. He wasn't hungry. He wasn't in need. They lived in a five bedroom house in a beautiful town. They drove new cars. There was food on the table to feed a family twice their size. It was all about what he WANTED. His wife no longer wanted him so he had to make sure that she would never have anything ever again.

"Father, forgive them. For they know not what they do." Amen
