God’s Timing
Perhaps today’s misfortune was good for me. I still tend to be a news junkie. I needed to stay away from the news and my favorite shows due to the horrific results yesterday.

There are some days when things seem off. Wednesday was that day for me. It was a week later after the assassination so I just imagine what his family feels like. I didn’t even meet him and he made such an effect, but that wasn’t solely my dysfunction. A couple of days later I realized…
