Hey all,
So yesterday was yule, the longest night before it starts getting light again. It is my christmas day but i only celebrate that on my own. My family follow different believes if any so its a time for me to reflect and thank the gods and goddesses for my safe year and for them looking after me and my family. Now yesterday wasn't a good day, I couldn't stay at home and do my day long thing I normally do for yule because I was in work. That was fine for me because I can do most of it today on my day off. What I didn't like was the fact while I was in work there was a shooting down my work street. It effected me strangely because I went to a very dark place and panicked. The area the shooting was in was the way my nan was walking to get her bus before I went to work and I was only in work about half an hour when it happened. It didn't hit us as a shop until the police was starting to corner off the area so people couldn't walk and take the samples they needed for their case sort of thing. For our safety we closed our shop for an hour until someone from our work said it was fine to open again. But it shuck me. Our town is a small quite town where nothing big ever happens and for me having the shooting happen just outside down the street from our shop shuck me. Who in the right mind would shoot someone? It's really busy in our town because christmas is coming and people are still getting their stuff ready and kids where out and about and someone shot this person in daylight where kids are about. I just don't understand what the hell this person was thinking. He probably wasn't to shoot someone in the first place! I relaxed once I found out that my whole family was safe and that the people who were shot where fine with minor injury's and were taken to the hospital. I knew the police were outside our shop so we were safe and we continued to work like normal. But it hit me today that if I wasn't in work and I was out in town with my nan like normal on this day we might of been shot. Because we walk past that area all the damn time and thats scary. I thank my lucky angels who were watching down on us that it didn't happen to us because I just don't know what I would do. It shuck me to my core and now all I can think about is the fact that it happened in our town before christmas on my yule. Anyway I am fine, the people shot will survive and the shooter will get caught. I should focus on the positives because thats all we have. Speak to you all later. MissDoomie x Comments are closed.
