Do you watch the news or listen to it every day?
Do you feel that this is the only way to be informed about what is going on?
How does it make you feel?
WELL, this can be a double edged sword. Much of the news is highly sensationalized, exaggerated, and colored. But what part of it is REAL?
This is a real dilemma. Do I believe what I see and hear, or do I decide for myself what the truth is? How do I judge and sift the real facts out of all of the chaos? And do I really want to be repeatedly exposed to so much pain, violence and aggression?
Oh, Rhonda Joy, you might say, sticking your head in the sand again?
Hardly. I try to use all of my faculties, including my instincts and intuition, to be part of what is happening in the world, hopefully from a more balanced perspective than what the daily news is giving me.
At the end of the day, I decide what fits, how I want to live my life and what I’d like to invite into my experience.
So, I have a confession. I DON’T watch the news and am well informed on what is happening. Somehow the important information gets to me. I maybe even more so than most, because I am connected to many different online communities that are geared toward the betterment of the world and humanity.
Not kidding. These online spaces really exist, with real live people who honestly care about how we function, out of choice and concern for others. So I get a balanced picture of what is happening, not only the gloom and doom, but also the uplifting picture of human creativity and cooperation.
Hey, it makes my life more serene and fulfilling!
So my thought for you is to explore the creative, cutting edge sites if you haven’t already. Look for those inspirational websites, like the Global Coherence Initiative http://www.glcoherence.org/, http://theoneworldinitiative.com/ and others. They give an expanded perspective of our world and how we can all join in through cooperation and collaboration.
I think this is a beautiful direction that we can all be a part of, a real win-win situation.
Here are some inspirational videos to ponder:
