Boston

I, like all of you, have been at such a loss for words over the bombings in Boston earlier this week.  I just cannot understand HOW, WHY, WHO!  It makes no sense to me.  And then I think about how some countries deal with these completely senseless bombings DAILY, and my heart hurts more than I can handle.  I plan to blog more about this topic in the coming days, but for now I'd like to leave you with a short video.  I am a hockey fan...so much so, that on our wedding day, my husband and I wore Buffalo Sabres (our favorite team) jerseys to our wedding reception!  Last night was the first Sporting event in Boston since the bombing...and it just so happened to be the Boston Bruins and the Buffalo Sabres.  I think either way, I would have watched the game; but, I was not prepared for the emotional bucket of tears I became when I watched the entire arena sing the National Anthem together.  For a moment in time, we were all united...one arena, one country, one great big support group for each other.  At the end of the game, both teams gave a salute...which I couldn't get a video of this morning, but if you can find it on youtube, please feel free to share it!

Boston Bruins/Buffalo Sabres National Anthem...Boston Strong


Thanks to John Bain for posting.
