Am about to apparate to Paris for dinner with Narcissa and Draco. Times like this certainly illustrate the importance of the family and the impermanence of mortality.
Random as it may seem, when awful things happen there is often a reason why. The secret is to find out why such things are happening and then strive not to emulate the behaviours that would cause such evil to be. But what is evil? Pilate himself asked much the same question. His determination was that truth seemed to differ from person to person but that it made each person's truth no less valid; is evil such a mutable concept as well? It is regrettable that such things happen, but even more regrettable when people fail to pay heed to the world around them and, through their inattention, bring misery upon themselves. Not all of us are as astute as we proclaim ourselves to be; or is it simply that one mistakes caring for constant vigilance?
Narcissa's calling--I must go. I've had a craving for duck a l'orange for the past few days. I always love a good meal after a job well done.
