Spain Train Derails

http://www.cnn.com/2013/07/25/world/europe/spain-train-crash/index.html?hpt=hp_t1

"Security footage shows the horror of the moment an express train derailed as it hurtled around a curve in northwestern Spain on Wednesday, killing at least 78 people and injuring 178, local officials said."

This is so sad.  I actually took a Renfe train when I was backpacking in Spain.  This really hit home for me.  What if my backpacking trip was NOW and I was on that train?  I really don't know the purpose of me writing this, only to express my condolences for the innocent travelers going to work or exploring the world. 

Life is short.  Say and and do all that you feel.  Spread your love and light, for you never know when it will be dimmed.
