There's never time to save, you're paying by the hour.
Some days are better than others. Waking up to hear that twenty beautiful little kids were murdered in their classrooms was completely devastating. There is nothing to be said about it that can console the families, nothing that can be done to fix that community, nothing that can make this go away. 20 lives that had not yet been lived are over, they had just started to realise they were their own people, starting to make their own decisions, be happy, figuring out what they were good at, what it was like to have friends. This tragedy should never of happened. One tiny bit of contorted metal, simple physics has lead to an amount of emotion that can never be contained or explained by the world. This should never have occurred and now the world loses tiny souls who would have grown up to love somebody, be good at something and would have changed the lives around them in a positive way instead of this pain and hurt that takes its place after one man chose to live out a horror movie. School is a place where we are supposed to feel safe, learn about life, learn that there is evil in the world but there is also good. These children will remember this for the rest of their lives. They will remember the day that violence entered their safe haven. Help should always be there for those who need it, these survivors will need years and probably the rest of their lives to come to grips with what happened. All we can do is hope and pray to whichever entity we believe in that they will learn to heal what has been broken and know that they are loved.
