“It's difficult in times like these: ideals, dreams and cherished hopes rise within us, only to be crushed by grim reality.
It's a wonder I haven't abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical.
Yet I cling to them because I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.”

When I stepped outside this morning, this was what I saw.
*
Why? I mean.. Why?
*
But after seeing these stick figures drawn with mud, I couldn't stop smiling.
*
I quickly remembered hearing kids' laughter that was coming from the courtyard yesterday.
*
How could I get upset after seeing these drawings and remembering the laughter...
My thoughts and prayers go out to those who lost their loved ones in Connecticut.
