OK, so here it goes. I usually just share jokes for funny pictures that I see. Ill be the first to admit that I have a very sarcastic sense of humor. But something has been bothering me lately. Every single time I turn on the news, all I ever see is a focus on the most negative of what is in the world. I get onto facebook and I see alot of funny and in good humor stuff. I see a few things here and there that are decent in people. Then I see the videos of the worst of the worst again. For folks that know what I have done in my life, know that I have seen the absolute worst of the worst. Both in politics and in humanity in general. The main conversations of a lot of the people that I talk with deal with what is going on in the negative news. Understand that the news- no matter what channel you watch, is bias. It is slanted and/or created for ratings. Yes- there are bad things out there, but the world is just not that bad of a place. Here is the intent on where I am going with this. Get outside, make a conscious effort to smile and say hello to everyone you meet. Most of them will smile back. Stop worrying about the news. Do something nice for someone. Doesnt have to cost money, if it does- great; but it doesnt have to. Help someone with a flat tire. Help an elderly person out with their groceries. Not only will they start believing in the world and humanity again, it might make you feel better too. Heres the clincher. You cant really expect for people around you to have positive attitudes if yours isnt. Bad attitudes are like a viral disease. Lets see if positive attitudes are viral as well. Ill do my best. Your turn?
