Dark Knight of the Soul

I don’t really have much to say on the Holmes shooting itself.  I mean, what can I offer beyond heart break and sympathy?  I have no grand words of wisdom for the families.  It is a tragedy…we do not understand the motives that drove him.  But we know there is a lot of loss and suffering.  And offering condolences, prayers, hopes and whatever you can?  Those are the best response right now.  The gut desire to make it about something other than the immediate tragedy is neither helpful nor needed.  We should share the sorrow and heartbreak with the Aurora community.

May the victims and their families get some peace in the days to come.
