Praying for Shasta

Tonite I watched the CBS news & saw video film clips of little Shasta Groene (abducted by a molester), video filmed in a convenience store. She held her little arms firmly clamped across her upper abdomen, protecting what we know as the 4th chakra (the emotionally active one)Where light either shines out or is taken in by people we know & trust. Shasta has had no one to trust since May 16th when her mom, stepdad & older brother were murdered. She & Dylan, her 9 yr old brother were taken away by this predator & the news now comes out that they were repeatedly raped & molested. Dylan may have been murdered, depending on the DNA testing of some remains. Shasta has seen untold horror in a few weeks time. Her eyes look hollowed out, dead, completely shutdown. And we recognize that her childhood has been stolen, that life is forever changed for her.
My request from you is for your prayers.. that angels may surround her tortured soul. That her tenuous smiles now, may become real ones in the days to come. That friends & family may comfort her & demonstrate a new kind of trustworthiness for her.
I am haunted by Shasta's vacant eyes..

I just can't even imagine going through something like that at age 29...let alone at age 8. This soul has her whole life ahead of her; I do pray she heals - emotionally and physically.

This probably isn't the place for it, but I have to rant for just a second. There is so much evidence that points to sex-offenders being unrehabilatable. You can't fix them. So, why do we let them back on the streets? Why do we allow this to keep happening? I'm not necessarily proposing lifetime sentences in jail, but we -- as a society -- have to do something about these men who lurk and rape and molest...repeatedly. Once is too much. Twice is absolutely unacceptable.
