back story: by Julie Miller:
"According to all who knew her, Rachel Joy Scott was an amazingly compassionate seventeen year old girl, who's deepest desire was to be a friend to the friendless, to know God, and to show love to everyone she touched. On the morning of April 20th, 1999 Rachel seemed not to be paying attention in class, preoccupied with something she was writing in her journal. Then, sometime a little after 11am, while sitting with a friend outside for lunch, Rachel was the first of thirteen innocent persons to be killed at Columbine High School. Later, out of a backpack with a bullet hole, her journal was found. On the final page she had made a drawing of her eyes with thirteen clear tears falling from them upon a rose. The same rose was discovered drawn in another diary, this time growing up out of a columbine plant with the words 'Greater love has no man than this, that a man would lay down his life for his friends'" (John 15:13).
