Only one week after the shootings in Texas with 26 dead, including a fetus and its mother, my reaction has been rather strange. It is as if I have wrapped Teflon around my body, my soul, and my humanity.
My reaction has been, “Oh, that's too bad. What's playing at the movies tonight?”
There have been so many of these shootings and mass murders that I no longer have a humane and caring reaction to these events. They just roll over me, and I am left with little feeling.
With such a bombardment of my senses and my emotions, I have been desensitized to the tragedies. I remember the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting when I felt true sadness and despair for the children killed that day and for their community and their families.
