Nothing but sadness today

My heart is heavy for the loss of so many today. Although the crash site of Flight 3407 is about 15 miles from my home, for some reason, I feel as if it could have been on my street. I don't know how that neighborhood will recover. My heart goes out not only to those on board, but for the family whose home was destroyed in addition to their father/husband taken. How do you get beyond that? One minute its just another Thursday evening and then --- how do you process the loss of your husband and the home you made, the memories of everything in that home just gone in an instant. Your life completely turned upside down and inside out. It makes my head hurt and my heart cry.
