Another facebook doozy....
Name of Church Here friends -- if any of you know Diane & Richard Soandso from church, they lost their oldest daughter to cancer a few weeks ago and are having trouble coping with her loss. They could really use some prayers.
What's wrong with this sentence?  Weeks?  Trouble Coping?   I know she means well, but really?  I thought about commenting a big fat DUH! on her post but refrained.  Instead, I share about it here.

How we rolled

This is the latest photo being posted by fb friends.  It's not the first time I've seen something like this.  The implication that we adults turned out just fine without having crazy parents like today's parents 'protecting' us from ourselves.  The implication that we turned out fine and survived our childhood without having all this new fangled protection.

Sadly, I am a crazy person.  Because when I look at this picture, my first reaction is ... yeah, we survived, but someone didn't.  Someone's child died doing just this; hence why knee pads,helmets and brakes DO exist today.
