Instant communication is tough sometimes. How quickly we can text bad news or email a picture. Before we know it...BOOM! A video is uploaded to Fox News or CNN and we all know what's going on. Living in the D.C. metro area is a very fast paced way of living. I've spent much of the last 2 years wishing life would just slow down a bit here. It's frantic at times.
But today, I was very pleased with technology and its ability to inform quickly. I received a text from a tough Army Spouse about the most recent Army Widow. Out of respect for the freshness of so great a loss I won't name her. But I wanted to take the opportunity to use blogging, an instant form of communication, to let those close to me know; A Hero Died, very recently, on a far away battlefield. He left behind a beloved wife and gorgeous kids.
Would you all please join me in using your instant forms of communication and ask those you know to pray for this sweet family and the loss of their cherished husband and father?
Thanks!
Now to slow down the pace of communication and contemplate just the right card to create with the words to express my deepest sympathies to one of my beautiful PWOC Sisters.
