i am not a mother...

i never have been, i never will be.  i do not know what a mother's love feels like.  i only know what i've been told - that it's deeper than any other love, that it never ends, that it's unconditional. 

i don't know what kind of unimaginable pain it must be to lose a child.  i can't compare it to anything in my life. 

i do know that i was deeply saddened and horrified by the killing of 20 small children this past friday.  my heart ached for them, and for the parents they left behind. 

last night i grabbed my sketchbook and pencil and drew what i was feeling inside my soul.  godspeed...
