And here we are again...

Middle of the night...and I'm cleaning my house (well, ok..I'm blogging, but I was cleaning).
I find myself pondering some of life's great mysteries. I don't sleep too well, or often. The hazard of two kids I guess.
So I wonder:
Why do terrible things happen to people who can do nothing to stop them? (The verdict on the Casey Anthony case came in today.)
Why, in a society with such abundance, are the people so incredibly stingy and self-centered?
Why does the sight of my oldest child snuggled up to his dinosaur pillow with his sun-browned legs sticking out from under the sheet bring tears to my eyes?
How can such beautiful and amazing things exist in a world with such awful things at the same time?

I guess I'm not going to get any answers to these any time soon. And I should probably be getting to bed since morning comes early with two small kids in the house. It's a beautiful world though.
