Terror in Belgium...

Another sad day for our world. A terror attack today in Brussels Belgium.

Today's attack got me thinking about the world we share. I think... what could motivate a person to commit an act of murder? I wanted to say an act of murder against a group of innocents, but the murder of anyone is equally reprehensible, so to me murder is murder.

In my life, I have come to understand anger, but that anger never caused me to embrace violence. I've never been a fighter. I know rage, but not the hate that must compel people to the level of atrocity that we see in these attacks. To have rage is terrible. To act on that rage with violence is unacceptable.

What is the method for calming the hate that leads to these acts of terror? Will the application of an even greater level of force in return just incite an even greater rage? Can rage solve rage? Isn't that the cycle that we are already in?

I don't understand the hate. I can't understand the rage. I'm glad.

I hope that I live long enough to see a world without terror. Oh what a world that would be.

Peace my friend. Thanks for being.
