There has been a horrific terror attack in Nice, France. People were celebrating Bastille day watching fireworks. A man plowed down over 100 people with a truck. Then he started shooting.
There are at least 75 dead and many injured. There are stories about hostages in hotels and people are hiding wherever they can. There is also a report of a fire near the Eiffel Tower.
It is another sad day for mankind. My heart is breaking for the world.

@akalinus I find myself constantly praying for sanity to return to this world. My prayers go out to the people in Nice. Oh, yes I read that the singer Rihanna was having dinner nearby when this happened and of course everyone got worried about her being there.

@cindiowens You know, I wonder the same thing. I also wonder if any of us will be here long. I guess we need to spread as much good around as we can.

I had not heard this about a fire at the Eiffel Tower or rather, near it. So many troubles. I prayed last night. I guess I need to pray a lot more.

Terrorism is on the rise and the only way out is to eradicate their whole kind. This is possible only when people unite and come together and fight as one, on behalf of the whole humanity irrespective of country, creed, race or religion. As for the aforementioned attack, it is yet another attempt to destabilize France and tarnish it's integrity and peace. My prayers for the victims of this heinous act and my solidarity to their families.
