Airline tragedy MH17

My heart goes out to all those who perished in the recent airline disaster and tragedy of MH17, to their family and friends. I cannot even begin to comprehend your reality right now.

For someone who travels by air more than most, it deeply concerns me that something like this happened and could happen in the first place. Why? Who is responsible? Who will be held accountable?

There are so many questions that need to be answered — where does one start? The recovery and healing processes going forward are to be immense, exhausting, emotional, political and overwhelming to say the least. Words can hardly describe this criminal act.

The world is in shock and mourning the 298 souls that lost their right to live. Their lives taken without notice or reason. They were attacked without warning or defence.

My sincere condolences to you all. I am truly and deeply sorry.

Let us all be grateful for our everyday and may there be justice in the world.
