Messages

I get daily emails/messages from a variety of web sites.  Most have messages of gratitude, self-help, expanding awareness, and just overall goodness.  My favorites are The DailyOM (www.dailyom.com), Wake Up Word (www.wakeupworld.com), and The Mind Unleashed (www.themindunleashed.org).  These sites drop some knowledge on me every day. I choose to seek out the good things rather than listen to all the negative nonsense the media tries to force-feed us calling it news.  Think about it for a few minutes. 

Can you recall the last time you saw some positive message on the news that uplifted you, warmed your heart, or made you feel good?  The only thing I can remotely recall is the person of the week that one of the networks where they recognize someone for their actions or work to make the world a better place.  In contrast, there are reports daily, and multiple times mind you, about all the bad people and bad things in the world. That is the very reason I do not watch the so-called news.  I do not see any upside to hearing all the negative messages. 

Here’s a good message for you: “There is always, always, always, something to be thankful for.”
