One week

We are exactly one week from the 5-year anniversary of the shootings at Virginia Tech.  I cannot believe it has been five years already.  It literally seems like yesterday, and I have very vivid images of that day, and the days and weeks afterwards.  I think about it all the time, but in particular this time of year.  This is what we all need to keep in mind - this week, and every day.

"I ask each of you to take the time to be a Hokie this week. Appreciate life a little more, take in every moment around you, count your blessings, tell the people around you that you love them, slow down, remember what's truly important in life. And live for those 32 that do not have that chance anymore."
