While looking, I see this particular tweet:

Oh my God.

I felt an unintentional burst of emotion and my eyes get wet, having woken up 5 hours ago to see my two year old struggling to sleep and taking out some of her little toys and playing with them...

You know, every single baby is adorable and lovable and wonderful, and thinking about the path of self-destruction that she took, that destroyed her life and those of many others, including her own parents and family, is pretty overwhelming.

A lot of people mock the "thoughts & prayers" comments, but this is all we can do, guys.... People just break & go insane, and we cannot undo the past. When it is done, we must cleanse our thoughts & our minds & the matter near us with prayer and our own mental anguish, so that the matter around us can on some level be sanctified by the suffering.

The world is a sacred place because it is the arena of our joy & suffering.
