http://www.latimes.com/news/nation/...eaths-murder-suicide-20120926,0,3398432.story This happened in my community Monday, one of the kids was my friend. If you have similar stories feel free to share. Why do some things happen?
I've been through something similar personally so I can empathize with your anger, confusion and frustration. The answers may never be clear and that's just a big pill you learn to swallow after a certain amount of time has passed. Grieving is always important, but shortly after that phase you'll learn to celebrate the lives of the people you knew who were hurt. The person who committed the horrible act becomes a fragment of a lost memory, dwarfed by the positivity you'll see from your community surrounding the victims.
I know how you feel bud. I lost my best friend on July 4, 2011 and I was on vacation in Hawaii and unable to get back to New York because airlines suck. I just look at it like this, one day I'll see my best friend and you'll see your friends. I know it sounds a bit dark but thats the best I can say, its what I was told when I was mourning my loss. If you need anyone to talk to, just get a hold of me. Im here for you
I'm sorry this happened and I hope you can find some peace soon. I'd suggest not trying to seek an answer or meaning; more often than not there is none On the surface that seems cold, but the important thing is "what do we take away" when something like this happens. Perhaps the only lesson to take is that life is fleeting and the people around you can be gone at any moment so don't leave things unsaid that need to be said (the good things!). Don't dwell in the darkness of this event, it will only drag you down and your friend certainly wouldn't want that. It's times like this that you can tell people what they mean to you and they don't get all creeped out.
