A Prayer for Mourners

On this Sunday, the second day of February, 2025, my heart is feeling the  tragedy of the recent plane collision.
It is reported that sixty-seven people were killed. Only forty-one sets of remains have been found, and that leaves twenty-six bodies still unrecovered. This has to be agony for the families and friends of those that were killed.

I did not know any of the victims of this tragic accident. However, I do know what it feels like to lose loved ones, so my mind knows a little of what the families and friends of these victims must be feeling at this time.

My thoughts and prayers are with everyone who might be mourning the loss of a loved one. I can tell you that in my experience everyone grieves differently, and this is okay. Some take a long time to get over it, while others find a mission to occupy themselves to lessen the grief, while others see it as a inevitable part of life, and move forward stoically. When the victims are young it is hard not to dwell in the "what could have been", if not for this tragedy.

My hope is that the families affected by this tragedy can find emotional support, peace, and resolution in some way.

My name is Katherine J. Krein. I lost my father in June of 2013, and then I lost my mother in November of the same year. After they both died I went through a mind-warping number obsession that has taken me years to control. This is my story. It is now 2026. I still use this site to post some poems and thoughts. My obsession has faded, however, I still notice the numbers. Faith, hope, and love is what guides me now.
