From the beginning…till the end
Saturday September 16th, 2006
Bonjour,
It has been a hard week, on Wednesday a young women who loved pink tragically lost her life in a senseless tragedy. Her life end the life of her loved ones will never be the same. My daughter asked me why he did it. Why Dawson? The media is currently full of speculations: it is the gun, the videogame, the bullying in high school, mental illness…
We will never know exactly what was the tipping point that lead this young man to shoot and kill her and himself. I do not know exactly why and to be honest it does not really matter. What is important is what we can do to prevent such tragedy to happen again, their is only one way and it is not more gun control or added security in school. The only way is to take care of each other, to hug and listen to our children’s, to help the one who needs it, to live fully from the beginning…till the end.
The Ride for the Cure is all about helping each other, we have already raise more than $42,000 to help women suffering from breast cancer. Without people helping each other when we ride less than half the people would be able to finish, without caring for each other the ride would not be possible.
I would like to specifically thank the following individuals without who the Ride for the Cure could not of happen: Ian Johnson, Henri Anderson, Jeff Martens, Marie-Anne Paquette, Claudine Boisvert, Marie-Josee Bisson, John Dorsey, Rajiv DeSilva, Shelley Brown, Jeff Marchand, my fellow riders and most importantly everybody who is donating to find a cure to breast cancer.
