When Saints Collide
Two good people lost their lives yesterday on Aycock Avenue. One was a well respected member of UNCG"s administration, the other a high school student who volunteers at the Urban Ministry.
The Greensboro News and Record has a good article on what happened.
Ironically, while this news was getting out yesterday morning, I was reading this comic from Something Positive.
And then there's Billy Joel's song "Only the good die young".
The meaning I created for myself from all of this: In the set of all people bound for heaven, the almighty would rather be surrounded by the cool and interesting folks, so naturally they would be the first recalled.
I find that comforting somehow.
