It was one of the more curious messages to blare from the Harrisburg Airport public address system

A baby sock has been left at security.

I quickly discovered that the missing sock belonged to the dashing young gent across the aisle from me.

He beamed a smile as he sat in his mother’s lap while his father hustled away to retrieve the errant footwear.

The young family were on their way to spend some quality vacation time in Alabama. It was just such a joy to connect with them as they began their journey.

In this brief encounter, I was reminded how babies bring people together. Their joy is infectious and their love for their parents knows no bounds.

Abortion cancels that joy, leaving so many crushed souls in its wake. It robs women and men of the priceless gift of unconditional love. And it coarsens our society in the process.

When will the advocates of abortion wake up to the fact that abortion is not the solution to societal ills? It only brings more.
