Our Broken Hearts

We’re pausing here for a moment at Relationship Rhythms to share our grief at the recent mass shooting in Orlando, Florida.  Unfortunately, here in the U.S.,  this is becoming an all-too-familiar story. We are the only “advanced” country in the world where anyone can purchase an assault weapon on a whim–few questions asked.

Here’s a brief reflection from Nelba Marquez-Greene,  a mother (and family therapist) whose six-year old daughter was killed at Sandy Hook in 2012.
