Oh well, sad day in Toronto. A pretty little girl named Holly Jones was murdered more than a year ago. While she was walking in the streets from a friend's home, she was grabbed in the neck, assaulted, and murdered by a man who just had this what he called "dark secret" of having sex with a young girl after watching child pornography in the Internet a couple of minutes earlier before he walked out of his house and looked for a victim. Holly was at the wrong place at the wrong time, she happened to be alone when this predator went out looking for a prey.. It was horrific when a day after she disappeared, a man walking out with his dog stumbled on a bag and found Holly's dismembered body. A year after, the suspect pleaded guilty, apologized, asked for forgiveness... It is sad for both Holly and her family and for the suspect. He is a guy who had never had a crime record, and lived a quiet life. But due to the evil called pornography made available by the devil's advocates here on earth, many people have been left devastated for the rest of their lives, hearts were broken, dreams were left unfulfilled, a society was left in shock and disbelief.

While we clench our fist, stand in horror, and ask for justice, let us not forget that two lives have been broken forever. To the victim's family, the admission of guilt will never be enough to ease the pain they are going through, it will never be able to soothe their aching hearts and their loneliness of losing a loved one. Only God can give them the peace, forgiveness, and acceptance that their youngest is now in heaven, happier than she could ever be than living in a place called earth where greed, fear, and all kind of sins can be found in its every corner. For Michael, his sorrow at committing the crime and admitting that his crime is not the works of a human being, will never be able to revive what could have been his dreams of a quiet and peaceful life, of joy, of maybe, success and fame. A monster went into his head and in less than hour, the monster waved his path in committing a crime nobody, maybe not even him, thought could be possible. While God and His angels watched in horror, in agony, in pain, in disbelief, that one of His precious creations would indulge to the sins made available by Information Technology, the monster watched his latest victim give way to his promptings. I wonder if for a fraction of a second, he felt guilt and wanted to stop right where he was. But he gave in to the desires of the flesh, to a sin called lust, and I feel sorry for him. Their quiet lives have been turned upside down, into a nightmare they never thought they would get theirselves into.

Living away from my family, from my nieces, I feel fear everytime I think of what-could-bes. I constantly remind myself how lucky I am that God takes care of them, that they are alive, that they are safe. But who is safe in a society who has forgotten the basics of life, the need for prayers, the need to surrender everything to the Almighty, the need to respect people for who they are, and most of all, the need to live life accordingly -- how our Creator wants us to be -- live Holy?
