long time a go i can stell remember how it useto be, were you had one fear death and it alone your job you home ever were you went the fear of it happening , now every body is chanceing the bad news train, up and down the tracks.
I just can’t keep up and I find that as much as I don’t feel like a good citizen for doing it… I do have my head in the sand about some of the news…
But then… my news has been littered with snotty articles about how I’m eating ramen wrong or 10 things that lets you know your relationship is on the rocks… all this other stuff that is NOT news at all in anyway…
It’s all negative entertainment.

I’ve been taking a glance at some of the “news” now as I have been thinking about it…
It’s NOT news… who cares if an actress is seen out in gym cloths… who cares if Bill Maher and Ben Afflic are having and argument over the principles of the Muslim religion… (like either of them are experts)
I’m coming to see that very little of it is actually news at all… It’s all collective negativity and distraction. So much discontent.

like our news is basically, 3 people were murdered in a downtown apartment, gang activity is suspect.
there was a robbery at knife point at a gas station, have you been eating tomatoes? they could now be causing you cancer!
then oh look at this cute puppy at a park…
then back to another downtown shooting in broad daylight at a mall.
rinse repeat

I like keeping up with the news. I don’t like a lot of news topics, like those Kardashians could disappear forever and I’d be ok with it, but I do enjoy the news.
