You know I am so tired of getting up every morning and hearing the same things day after day on the news. There is never anything different. I thought that that when we elected this so called "man of change" into office things might actually start to change. Boy was I wrong! Things have changed, but not in the way that people were hoping for. They have become so much worse in some areas, and exactly the same in others. I want to get up in the mornings and hear of something good that has happened. I want to hear of a good deed done by one person for absolutely no reason other than because it was a nice thing to do. We focus so much on the negative that we forget all of the positive in the world. Why is it that the positive things are put to the wayside for the bad? I get so bored always reading the same things.
I have noticed that in my house, either myself or my husband, are always ranting about something on the television. And yes, I know that it is easy to change the channel, but why should we be forced to do so just so that we can see something that makes us smile? There is no reason that everything must be so negative. We I was younger, you heard about these same things, but, not in the excess that we hear them now. People were not as negative. It's like we knew then that people wanted to hear some good about their community to keep their spirits up and so that they could remain positive throughout their day. I think that people have become so used to hearing about all of the bad in the world that it does not seem to phase them anymore. Well, as far as I am concerned, I am tired of always hearing the bad, I want to hear some good. There is a lot of it out there and it is time that we put some of the focus on it.
I think eventually Obama will help the economy, but right now it is just awful. You are right about some of the negative shows on TV, but all we can do is step up "word of mouth". Rent videos from RedBox only a dollar then you wont have to listen to the news...
