When I first heard about the attack in Paris, I was devastated. Innocent people being killed is never an easy thing to disregard, I'm sure many were outraged by this news, but anger was not my first feeling, mine was sympathy for both the victims and their families. When asked how to handle a situation like this, an answer is hard to come up with. Some may say to attack back, but I truly don't see what that is solving, it is just putting more innocent people in danger. Some little fears I have are of sharks, and bears which I may, hopefully never come in contract with. But there are some fears that I am not too sure how to handle, I'm very scared of my future. Being in control of whatever I want to do in life is a scary thing as well as the risk for failure. I'm thankful for the support I have and every time I think of my future i try to stay optimistic.

nice work Stephanie.. yes.. very scary - but yes, empathy and concern was first for many, including me. Then it quickly got replaced with anger and wanting justice... and as your fears go.. many are the same or others... and just like you said, remain optimistic and keep good people around you. 2 great pieces on how to handle things - awesome job.
