My heart is broken this day. My soul cries out in agony, but I recognize my pain for what it really is. Our shared agony is born of greed, for our fathers, mothers, and friends are all in a better place now. Never again will they know sadness.

His Name, indelible, upon our dust;
And from the ashes of our self-despair,

Cementing sad experience with grace,
Fashions a stronger temple of His own. — Patricia St. John
