People have been amazing. I still can't get over the people who lept into action though they themselves were in the midst of trauma, and attended to the injured and dying. We're so lucky many more didn't die and can only hope and pray that no others do from their injuries. The resilience and good of people is always at the forefront after events like these and for that I am grateful.Pamela Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13251452639317129182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5980870119150557142.post-64092110841654338972013-04-17T16:52:28.194-04:002013-04-17T16:52:28.194-04:00I just wanted to leave support for your lovely tho...I just wanted to leave support for your lovely thoughtful giveaway.

I liv... I am so saddened by what happened on Monday. I live in Cambridge, just one city over from Boston, and many years I have enjoyed watching the Boston Marathon from my friends' apartment a few miles before the finish line. It breaks my heart the senseless death and injuries it has caused, and the pain for so many people, not just here, but around the world. I too am trying to focus on the wonderful things people have done in response; I have truly been in awe of how selflessly and generously people have responded after this terrible tragedy.
