Days of Darkness
Twenty-five days. Two years. Three countries. Four states. And darkness all around.
As I often do, I spent the beginning of a New Year reflecting on recent and not-so-recent events. In the quiet moments of early-morning meditation, I sensed a pattern. A disturbing pattern.

I sadly realized that for the past twenty-five days, I had witnessed too much pain in the lives of too many people.
