So Much Sad

There have been a lot of sad things going on lately, and I have been feeling really sad for a lot of people. Jen for one, has been going thru some rough times lately (with the un-comprehensible death of someone she knows, and with other stuff with the kids), and I hope that she knows that I am here for her if she needs me. I also hope that she knows that I care, and that I do understand. Then, at work, my friends M and D found out that they were pregnant after much trying, and then, surprisingly that they were expecting twins. They were so excited, and I was so excited for them. Well a few weeks ago, they lost one of the babies, and now are having some bleeding with the other. Things are looking okay right now, and I hope that they stay that way. She is 9 weeks now, and has a long way to go. I can only pray that all is okay for the next 31.

Another girl we know from online, just lost her baby at 19 weeks, and I was so sad to read about it. She is not someone that I’ve talked to in a long time, and we didn’t always see things eye to eye, but my heart goes out to her and her family. I hope that she can find some comfort somewhere in any of this.

So much sadness… sometimes I just don’t understand why so much bad has to happen in the world…. And yet somehow in the end, it all comes full circle. The world can be so goofy at times, and then at others it can just be so wonderful. I think I like the wonderful parts better.
