I have been reading all of the posts to Kyron's threads, but I haven't written much over the last couple of days. This sweet child has touched my heart and I've needed to take a step back in order to continue being functional in my own life. The sorrow that this case brings me is gut-wrenching at times and I have found myself crying over Kyron and his family's situation many, many times. But, even so, this isn't about me. This is about the fact that Kyron has been missing for far too long. He needs to be found and returned to those who love him. He needs to.
I know we all have differing opinions about what happened on June 4th, where Kyron is, the well-being of Kyron, as well as lists a mile long of who the possible "perp(s)" may be. But, something we can all agree upon is that we all hold Kyron and those who love him in our hearts.
This case has been frustrating in the lack of information, the rumors, and the redundancy and retractions. If we feel that here, I'm certain others close to the case feel it even more severely. I don't doubt that LE is doing all that they can in order to bring Kyron home. There was a time I questioned their abilities, the family, and everyone everywhere. There was a time I blamed the school, the family, LE, the FBI, SAR, and every Tom, Dick, and Harry. But, the reality is that the blame ONLY falls with the indivudual(s) who took Kyron. And, yes, I do believe he was abducted or lured. The rest of the community is just doing whatever they can in order to have Kyron returned to them...alive and well.
I can speculate on what I think happened from now until eternity. In fact, I've stated my opinions on this case on these threads a number of times. And, so, it's not important that I do so right now. Instead, I will offer this post as a prayer and a thank you.
Wherever Kyron is, I hope he is in no pain -- be it physical, emotional, or spiritual. I hope he is being cared for. I realize we may never know where Kyron is, but I pray that answers will soon come. I believe LE has many already. When it is our turn to know, I am certain they will share that with us. I pray that if Kyron is in pain that he can look up to the sky above and to his heart -- that way he will be given faith, courage, and strength. I hope Kyron knows he is loved and that there are many, many, MANY people in this world who care about him. I pray that this sweet boy is still with us, but that if he isn't, he is watching down on the world not with resentment, but with awe that there are so many people, so many walks of life, who are fighting with all they have to bring him home and bring justice for what has happened. I will always keep up hope that Kyron is alive and well. But, even in those bleak moments of uncertainty, I too can look all around me and see the good that has come from a terrible situation. Kyron has shown me gratitude, grace, compassion, and faith. He has helped a community come together. Perhaps, he has helped a family come together. I believe he will come home. And, when he does, I hope we all remember the lessons Kyron has taught us. As I said earlier, this sweet child has touched my heart. And, for now and forever more, he will hold a place in it as well.
My heart continues to go out to his family, LE, SAR, and the community. I cannot put in words how truly amazing everyone has been. They, too, deserve much gratitude and thanks. While I do believe LE knows more than they are letting on, I also believe that they are doing everything possible to bring Kyron back to those who love him and who he, in return, loves. This case is heartbreakingly sad -- no one can deny that. But, the way LE has handled this investigation (sometimes much to my chagrin) and the way a community has come together is hauntingly beautiful.
I will stick to my favorite words spoken about this case: Kyron, we're going to bring you home, buddy.
