Entry 15. Velritious

Velritious

Remembering you're a part of something bigger than yourself.

Tragedy strikes at the most sporadic moments. Like an unattended punch to the gut it leaves us reeling, and grasping for air. Hidden amongst the despair is a gift, reminding us of a simple fact about life. Families come together, societies unite, and we see that we cannot be an island unto ourselves. For a brief instant we surrender to the idea that there is much power when we come together. This is the power of belonging to something greater than yourself. It is an immovable object in the face of an unstoppable force.
