Consuming Fear

We don't need to consume fear each day. We don't need to constantly digest negative content from the news media to be an informed citizen.

It takes fifteen minutes to catch up on the events of the day.

Why not do this instead. Look around and consume the good that people are doing. Each day non-profits raise money for worthy causes. Individuals open business and perform great acts of courage. Pay attention to them. In the race to be informed we have numbed ourselves to all that is good. You can be informed. You don't need to ignore the bad, just don't bathe in it . Let us not be a culture that ignores the good.
