The Waffling of Hope

Isn't is strange how a horrible event like Marathon Monday bombing can trigger us to wonder "Where are we safe?" and "Should I be nervous at any major event that I go to?"   Its even stranger that, these days we have to have these thoughts. Period.   With these recent tragic and evil events it always takes a while for us to get back to normal thinking and for us to realize that we cannot live our lives in constant fear because, the reality is, there is evil in this world.  That is why, following recent stories such as these, we like to take time to remind everyone that, while there is evil, the good definitely outweighs the evil.  Yes, it is horrible and tragic that these people trained for months, even years, to qualify for this prestigious race and invited their closest friends and family to watch them race, not knowing that they were being put in harm's way.  But, it is important that we grieve for these people and we try to focus on the good that this has brought about.  It is hard to do that, but without doing so, life cannot go on.  So, while our hearts are with all of those in Boston, all of those who were injured, affected, or scarred by this recent event... we invite everyone to take a second to read this article about some of the good people.  And since we are in the business of smiles, try to smile... and spread it on.  #heintzorthodontics #sharingsmiles #beautifulsmiles #boston
