Bastards
From CNN:The Wednesday attacks at the Grand Hyatt, Radisson and Days Inn hotels in downtown Amman took their greatest toll on a wedding party.
The wedding reception of Ashraf al-Akhras and his bride Nadia Alami at the Radisson was targeted by one of the bombers. The explosion killed both of their fathers, a number of guests and wounded the newlyweds.
Having gotten married less than a year ago, all I can think is, these people probably had a good portion of those they they loved in the world, if not everyone they loved in the world, there. When I was worried about things going dreadfully, horribly, awry, it was along the lines of not enough food, people not having a good time, a fight between guests, that type of thing. My husband's and my family and friends dying wasn't even on the radar. I feel so sad for these two that the day that should have been their moments of greatest joy turned into such horror.
My prayers are with them.
