Friday turned out to be one of those days we will not forget.  Not just because it was Friday the 13th, but because of the horrific attacks by terrorists on innocent people in Paris.  Our thoughts are with the families and friends of all those people killed or injured so  senselessly.  

There is little doubt the date was selected with forethought by the terrorists.  These latest attacks - the Russian plane brought down and now Paris - have made us more aware, more suspicious, less comfortable when traveling or in large groups of people, and perhaps especially wary on certain holidays or at special events.  We know these attacks will continue until the terrorist groups are somehow annihilated, and in the meantime, we will all be a little less trusting of strangers.  It is not the way most of us want to be, but we all have the same desire - to keep our loved ones safe and to be safe ourselves, and we brace for the next attack.  It makes me sad and angry and I wonder how the world got to this place.
