I always love it when you see something that makes you sit back and really think. Making things like this shows the best facets of humanity.
@My Man Godfrey, my personal interperation:
The point is that incomprehensible things happen to us from time to time. The VT massacre, 9/11, the slings and arrows that life flings upon us and we must try to comprehenend the incomprehensible. We look and learn and try to find some way to understand, some "box" to fit it in, to pack it away in some way that make it understandable. Still, even when we manage to box it in, we carry it with us always, our personal burden that shapes the way we are.
