Pause. Stop. Breathe. Pause. Stop. Don’t Breathe. Pause. Stop. Live. Pause. Stop. Don’t Live. Pause. And this got nothin’ to do about our generation’s issues with homosexuality. That’s for another blog, another day.
But for the past two months, I have been deeply affected by the surge in youth violence that has been travelling across our country like a college road trip. Stop wherever it wants. Some nights quiet. Some nights never end. Sometimes high on liqour and ectasy. Sometimes sober as the 12 step program. Nevertheless, kids killing kids hurts ever bone in my body. And I have made it a mission to make sure that none of these kids die in vain. Because every single one of them has a name.
