I should be in the sky right now,
reading magazines and listening to Eli Young Band's entire album.
I love the sky because...
It makes me feel so tiny.
It gives me perspective.
It makes me feel human.
I love flying through it.
I love sunsets & sunrises.
I love, love, love stars & constellations.
And I love that it gives me breathtaking moments like these:

This post was meant to be published in the morning before I left for my flight back to Texas,
but my images were malfunctioning & I didn't get the chance to.
I found out about the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting
in between my two flights on my way home.
When I heard, I was still on a plane,
and was surrounded by children around the same age as those who suffered today.
When I saw how little they are, how innocent...
I realized how scared and confused those little elementary school students must have been,
and how hopeless their families must be feeling now -
and that's when I became devastated, disappointed, and angry.
There are no words.
Those kids, those families, those victims...
I can't even imagine.
It's astounding, it's heartbreaking.
It's unbelievable.
My thoughts and prayers are with them tonight.
❤
Ugh. The shooting was such a tragedy. I cannot even imagine what these families must be going through or what could ever provoke someone to be so violent. It's absolutely terrible. Those children had their whole lives ahead of them and did not deserve to leave the world this way. So heartbreaking. :(
