To: Those who have been affected by the collapse of the I-35W bridge in Minneapolis

Even though I could not possibly experience what you have experienced:
I share your grief at losing a loved one.
I share your joy at having a loved one returned to you safely.
I share your relief at having survived despite the odds.
I hope that if you are still waiting to hear of those who are missing, that your wait is short, and that the results are music to your ears.
I may not know you at all, but I love you, and in my heart I am glad that you are still here to enjoy life;
I hope you may do so in peace for as long as you live.
