Much Too Soon...

Before departing to bed last night, I ended up watching the 11:00 news with my mother-not that long, as once we saw what we saw, she changed the station and went to bed-and what we saw was truly shocking.

A homicide had, apparently, taken place on the highway my mother and I use on frequent occasions to get to and from my grandfather's place. And, a 6-year-old boy had been mauled by dogs. The parents are devastated by what has taken place. I am trying to understand why he was taken so soon from this world-yet, I don't think I will be able to.
