Be gentle with one another [View all]

[gopiscrap]

I am so sad, about two hours ago I received a call from a very dear friend of mine. I have sung with her at many funerals, weddings etc. Her son, 36 years old and has been plagued with the scourge of drug abuse and alcoholism, ended his life at 6:58 pm this evening.It was after his mom told him how disappointed she was in him. We wasn't sober during the call and after he hung up, he went into his bedroom and shot himself.

It is a stark horrible reminder to me to urge all of us to be gentle with each other. Specially in this nasty dog eat dog political climate that is seeping into our daily lives!!!

Just had to share!
