I spent way too much time watching CNN yesterday. I get sucked into the non-stop coverage of this horrific tragedies and end up so incredibly depressed. I must stop. It's horrific beyond words. It makes me think that if something like that happened where I live, I'd almost rather NOT be one of the survivors. I simply cannot comprehend how people cope with these massive disasters.
Then, when I decide I can't take it anymore and have to change the channel, I think how lucky I am that all I have to do to escape it is change the channel. Then I feel guilty because those people cannot escape the nightmare that they are living.
