The News...

has got me so bummed lately but I can't stop obsessing over it all. I want to be more positive, but so hard when I listen to all the violence that is going on in my country lately (the U.S.) and the world. I have GOT to be more positive and quit focusing on the negatives. I want to remember love, not hate. And I want to FEEL love again. Lately I feel like the news makes it hard for me to love the human race in general, but I really want to. Think I need to start doing some sort of spiritual practice again. Oh, and sleeping instead of looking at news on the internet.

I hear you brother, The inmates are running the asylum. I'm worried too and it's a rational worry, however, life will go on and we have that to see to. I think you're headed in the right direction which is to focus on the positive. Some times that takes a bit of effort, but it will become a habit and you will feel better. You know you might want to listen to the news less, they usually just rehash it till it's beaten to death.Spiritual is good, Pam

USA all the way ! I approved this message which is medicinal not political.

Sleep is good as it passes time and you get to blank out everything. I can sleep though and wake up shattered. Living in a stressful world does this though. Life is one big stress.
