Everyone is different as everyone knows therefore everyone responds to tragedies differently. Some people become silent and depressed, some people cry, and some people take it to an extreme or they might just not care for too long. There are thousands of people this week who are dealing with the Maxwell Family tragedy differently but one thing in common with all these people is that we are all in grief and mourning. How couldn’t we be? The Maxwell Family was a beautiful, loving and Christian family who obviously had deep internal conflicts that were hidden from the outside view. Billy, Kathy, Connor and Cameron were all wonderful people and should be remembered by the Christian, role model-like people that they were. This entire situation is incredibly confusing, awful and tragic but who are we to figure this out? Who are we to know every single detail and to try and figure out why Billy did this and why it was this particular family? We are just people who need to be uplifting and look to Him, the Lord Almighty during hard times such as this one. He is the only one who knows the answers to the why questions. He understands our anger and doubt therefore He wants us to ask questions. The last thing he wants us to do is to be silent; to give up. We must keep fighting and keep living our lives to the best Christians we can be to honor the Maxwell Family.
