March for Our Lives

It was hard for me to find an image for my blog today because my heart
and mind were with the brave students, parents and teachers
marching for gun control in the U.S. all over America, and all
over the world in support of the students demanding change to the
gun laws. . As far as I'm concerned that's the big news.  This image of
photos of a beloved child seems right.  Because every parent has these
framed photos.  And so would the parents who've lost their children in
 a school shooting, or war, or family violence. The message is the same
 -- we need to get rid of the guns.

We all deserve to live in a world without gun violence, and I am
so proud of everyone who marched, spoke, sang trying to make this happen.

Have an ending the acceptance of gun violence day.
