shoot first then ask questions later

Sadly in May , some one very close got robbed, or rather her home got burgled. the thieves took her personal treasures given to her by a loved one. Fortunately for the family, the kids were not there neither was she. Guess that alone is a blessing only God can bestow.

It was a frightening experience for all of us., one that we will not forget too soon. Now home security is on all our minds once the sun sets. Of course the Police still have not solved the case nor have they caught the perpetrators of this greed intended act. We are not surprised but once in a while it would be good if the bad guys are caught and put behind bars. I think if caught they should be shot , chopped up and thrown to the sharks. ... If only.

There is no excuse for instilling terror on innocent people. If they have such itchy hands they should go and rob the corrupt members of society. These corrupted people don't deserve to keep their ill gotten gains anyway . Go rob those who earn $ 5000 but drive $300000 cars, live in million $ homes and still are able to sleep at nite. Some one should publish a manual for would be robbers , " robbing for dummies"... Where and who to help, unload their ill gotten riches... Hahaha. At least they will get a standing ovation when caught.

Anyway, she now is afraid to stay in her own home alone, but having not many choices , home it has to be. I pray that God will keep her safe. the only thing to do now is to move to a condo. How one decides which treasure goes and which to throw , one will need a double degree in home management, a masters in mental therapy and a doctorate in emotional management. How to throw away the pieces of a big puzzle that forms your family growing up requires a working committee of Einsteins and Sigmund Freuds . If its just hoarding , then its easy, close your eyes and just throw but , when a family has to throw or give away parts of their lives , it's sad . Life doesn't stop to purposely upset you but it goes on and so we have to keep up and move on in the face of a tragedy or an unfortunate event. Albeit unfair but as man depends on God, it is his will be done , not ours.

Some times it is easy to comment when its not our hand that is stuck on the pot. It is easy for me to write this as I stand outside watching the events unfold, but, it's not easy to find the right words to say to the one suffering this act of cruelty. Now would be a good time to find solace in the Lord .
