Agreed! I also wrote a blog on this – wish we could hear a little good stuff too! 🙂

Love that we are on the same “cosmic” page. Yes, I wish the morning newspaper was called “Happy News” – now wouldn’t that be a healthier way to start the day. Thanks Isabel. I am glad you are in my life, as virtual as that may be. Peace, Harlon

Well done, Harlon. On all counts.
Nature is like a cathedral of healing, in a way. All we are asked to donate is our presence.
Peace

I agree. Life without the TV (and the commercials and the news) – but maybe keeping Netflix sounds great to me. Now if only I could have all that and be on an island in the South Pacific. Sigh! Thanks for the comment, Harlon

The news is always so depressing, so I try not to watch it unless I have to. Nature is a spirit lifter though, Sending love! ♥

Reblogged this on Loving Me, Too and commented:
This is why I don’t watch the news.

Same here, I don’t normally watch the news and did (out of curiousity). It’s not really news…or at least why can’t they have a show called Happy News. Thanks for the reblog. Have a super weekend Joanna! Hugs, Harlon
