Tell them you Love them...

I've been quiet on here lately, mostly because I've been incredibly busy with work and classwork.

However, in light of what happened in Boston on Monday, and what is happening in Watertown and Cambridge right now (the coverage is on my TV as I write this)...
Please tell the people you love that you love them every day. In some way.

Am I scared right now? Yes. I have friends and family in and around Boston - everybody I know is safe right now - but I'm still scared. When I woke up this morning and saw what was going on, I couldn't believe it, and I immediately texted the people I could from that area, and I'm glad that they're okay. But there are other families who have been affected, lives lost that didn't need to be, and that makes me scared for all of us.

So tell them you love them while you can, and while they can hear it.
