I am sad and stunned today. I hope that you can please send a prayer to my fellow Los Angelenos who have been killed or injured in a horrible commuter train and freight train collision yesterday. I ride the commuter train (different line) occasionally and enjoy taking it with the boys into downtown LA. It is a "community on wheels", a wonderful thing in this horizontal and dissociated car crazy city. My heart breaks for the families who wait in vain for their husband, wife, child, lover, sister, brother, or friend to walk through the door.
Sorry for the depressing post, even though the accident is 15 miles away, it hits close to home. Whenever I think, "That could have been me, us", I am reminded of the fragility of life and how well we deceive ourselves it is anything but.
