game of dominoes,anyone?

we always hear about all the bad things happening in the world. we hear it VERY LOUDLY on the news everyday. some folks think if you don't follow the news you won't do anything to make the world a better place. but how many people watch the news and get inspired? maybe it happens occasionally,but more likely,the selected news just makes people feel worse.

it drowns out the good news,unless we take the time to notice,because we have to find the good news for ourselves much of the time. but it feels so much better to notice the wonderful little beauties all around us than to turn on the news. and when we feel better,we are more likely to spread a ripple and make the world an even nicer place to be. a nice kind of domino effect.

i was reminded of this by helen nearing and my sister sara aka solarfields.

thanks,gals!

I heard this same thing in our church bulletin that I got in the mail a few days ago. It says to take a break and get 'unwired'. Turn off the news and take the phone off of the hook and have some relaxing fun without worry. Those bad things will always be going on, so we shouldn't forsake joy and focus only on the bad.
