  2. Christie Lomax:

    It brings me great concern that there have been threats toward my son, Armando Bacot's life, by individuals; one, who don't know him nor our family personally and two, did not know the whole story and truth, we are all dealing in a time that is extremely unfamiliar, making adjustments can be hard and not doing the things we love can make us sad. I understand. At no time is it OK to threaten someone, it's unnecessary and downright evil. Let's not forget to love ourselves so that we can pass on love to others. God loves us all, Prayers to All.

  5. Thrity Umrigar:

    I had always thought that it was so unfortunate that here's this huge holiday celebrated by close to a billion people in different corners of the world, yet most Americans are totally unfamiliar with it.
