The country is still in mourning and shock following the Las Vegas massacre, which killed nearly 60 people and injured nearly 500. Oprah Winfrey, the Queen of media, has opened up about her thoughts to Entertainment Tonight.

Oprah said she heard about the tragedy through a text from Gayle King: “And I have to tell you, I feel the same way the whole country feels,” she said. “I feel like my soul is aching for the country. There’s not a day that goes by where I’m not putting on my shoes, or brushing my teeth, where I just think about the ordinariness of, people who just went to a concert, or the ordinariness of the day from people from 9/11, who were just doing an ordinary thing, and then you never get home. So, I would say that these days of crisis and tragedy are to remind us all to be present in the ordinariness of our lives, that actually turns out to be extraordinary, when the person you love doesn’t come home at night.”

She added: “I pay attention to things, you know? This is to make us all more awakened about our own life, and the fact that it shows up this way is a horror. But, as I heard someone say, seeing people coming together, helping each other — whether it’s this crisis we’re in or what we saw weeks ago in, in Houston, in Florida, and now in Puerto Rico — it shows the humanity of us all. So, it’s an opportunity to show the best of ourselves, when the worst shows up.”

Above all, she wants people to have faith.

“I would say, we can’t allow ourselves to be frightened into not living our lives, and I think that we have to keep going and we have to keep going with the faith that thing will get better,” she said. “And things will get better when we make them better.”
