Comments on: The fuss is on Virginia Tech — but why? http://whitesakurarain.wordpress.com/2007/04/29/the-fuss-is-on-virginia-tech-but-why/ Random musings, the occasional rant, and hopefully nothing too hard to understand.

To those who are purportedly distressed by the occasional incident... why won't they wake up to the fact that they have so many more blessings to count than the average person?? Not everything is about ourselves or the people around us... in comparison to a lot of other people, we are so lucky to have what we have; materially, mentally, physically, or otherwise. Things just need to be put into perspective against other happenings sometimes.
