I wanted to say how much I hope that you and your loved ones are all safe (had to post it here because I cant there). Some things are more important than others - peace.

*theMAC nods at truth*

I hope everyone we see here is well.

They are from all over the world and they all come to these places to think and talk and play.

I hate to see that taken away from someone.

Thanks, Skalie. It's been a trying week. All lambs in my herd are accounted for. I got the call today that the last known person from my realm of reality that works in the City is O.K.

I was in Salt Lake today on a bit of business. Our governor was putting on a memorial service at the noon time hour at the State Capitol. I was interested, so I stopped by. I went inside and listened to the soothing words of a few local dignitaries and leaders of the LDS church talk about healing. We sang a few patriotic songs and people cried and held hands. It was nice, but not what I needed.

I found myself wandering outside and sitting on the steps of our State Capitol. I was sitting in the shadow of a monument just gazing out over the Salt Lake Valley. I sat there while a thousand people streamed past me and got in their cars and went about their business. I sat there for well over two hours. At times choked up; at times thinking about what a beautiful day it was; at times thinking about everything; at times about nothing.

Once I had my mind at peace again, I got up to walk down the Capitol steps and back to my truck. There was an elderly woman sitting about 50 steps behind me. She said she stayed there to make sure I was alright. I walked her to her car and she kissed me on my cheek. I don't know her name.... I don't know anything else about her. I just know that that is what I needed. Somebody to make sure I was alright.
