americans, many of my friends included, reached a new low today. i saw a total of 3 - THREE - posts on facebook discussing the absolutely horrific events that transpired in norway, and too many to count regarding the death of singer amy winehouse.
now, i think amy was an extremely talented artist who unfortunately could not control her demons, and i mourn the loss for her family and the music industry. she was far too young. but the fact that her death seemed to make more of an impact on us than 85+ people being murdered by a right-wing christian extremist in a terrorist attack in norway.. i am saddened. i mean no offense. but come on. and to have the headlines next to each other. it just seems wrong.
rest peacefully, amy. and rest peacefully those innocents in norway whose lives were tragically cut short. and may we keep them in our thoughts.
