I was brought to tears twice this afternoon, in my office.

First, I read this story about the kidnapped young woman in Cleveland: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2361824/Gina-DeJesus-Still-sees-world-14-year-old-girl-wants-to-prom.html

Poor Gina - how much she suffered and how much is lost, all at the hands of an evil monster. Who knows if she'll recover? I raised teenaged daughters, I cannot imagine something like this happening to them.

And then I saw the picture of Trayvon, and it really hit home to me how young he was. I knew he was a kid, but I don't think it registered just how young he was until I saw that picture. And now he is dead, his potential will never be realized, and all at the hands of an evil monster. My youngest is right now about the same age as Trayvon was. I can't imagine the sorrow of his parents.

I have no doubt Ariel Castro will get what he deserves. I wonder if Zimmerman will? Will there be justice for Trayvon?

I'm glad I have a private office.

1. You have a heart. Why you should feel bad of crying I don't know. I think about

it myself and wonder why the black community hasn't rioted more often for the treatment they get from whites who think they are entitled to everything and am white. I wasn't raised like that and I thank god my parents raised us to respect everyone no matter the race or nationality or wheter they are gay or straight. They thought us to treat people the way you want to be treated. There is no shame in crying when you see the tragic outcome of someone wanting to play bad cop and someone young dies.

3. I just feel horrible for all three of those young ladies.

Whenever I see their faces I just want to break down and cry. How could any monster do that to another living being?

Don't feel bad about crying. Any human being with a soul would do the same.
