My life is at a stand-still (and I won't be getting back to "regularly scheduled programming") until James Kim is found. I know many other people that feel the same.
Update: I jolted awake at 3:07AM Wednesday morning with James' face clearly in my mind. I'm not sure if I was dreaming or if it was some other force that brought him to me, but I told him to hang in there. Today. Today is the day.
I keep thinking, he doesn't know his family is okay, and that must be devastating. But, if I were in his situation, I feel like I could go on just powered by the love I feel for my children (not to mention my partner). I don't have any interest in outdoorsy pursuits, but I would climb mountains and swim rivers for them.
Let's hope that love is doing exactly that for James, and that his love for them brings him home.
I am NOT giving up hope. If you'd like to join me in sending positive, warm, safe thoughts into the universe for James Kim, I encourage you to write a blog post and tag it "Let's Go, James!"—words of encouragement from a friend of the Kims that seems to me to be the perfect, most fitting thing to say now. If you blog this let me know and I will link you. This blogging-unity thing worked before. Let's do it again.
Let's go, everyone working so hard to find him! Let's bring him home to his family.
LET'S GO, JAMES!!!
