From London




Dear all,

Never in six years in this town I felt so strongly to be a Londoner.
This city, like New York and Madrid before it, did not deserve such cruelty.

The blasts, so close to the British Museum, a testimony and tribute to all the cultures of the world, have left the town on its knees.

Do keep us all in your thoughts
Ilaria

Ilaria,
You are deeply in my thoughts and my prayers. London holds a huge place in my heart. My heart is so heavy for you and all Londoner today. It is a magical, a beautiful city full of equisite architecture and art...

Dear Ilaria,

Yes, all of our thoughts are with you and your country. Waking up to another nightmare like this is horrible beyond words.

Ilaria,

Glad that you are safe. You are all in my prayers. This is not just our fight, it has spilled out to innocent people everywhere. There is no way to reason with insanity or to understand it.

Alicia

Illaria,

Glad you are safe and so sad that the same cannot be said of everyone in London.

Carolyn

Oh no.

I'm afraid to turn on the news.
