tomorrow… April 15, 2008

April 16th. Just the date says so much. Perhaps the scariest day of my life, and I was not even directly affected. I cannot even imagine having to live through such a horrific event. Our school is having a moment of silence, and we will ring the belltower 32 times at noon tomorrow, in remembrance. We will all gather and wonder why them, and not us. Why so many innocent people were taken. What someone could be thinking to go and do something so awful. How inadequate our tolling bells are in expressing how we really feel. I will pray more than I usually do tomorrow. I will wear my Hokies shirt tomorrow. I will cry tomorrow. I will call and comfort friends tomorrow. But more than anything, I will be grateful for my life and the lives of my friends and family tomorrow.
