I feel awkward going there.
A bout a month or so, I found a link on the net to a website called Happynews.com Link, and I went to the site.
The website was built after a guy got tired of reading all the negative stuff in the news. If you go to any news webpage (cnn, msnbc, drudge, are my top 3 as well as occasionally fox), its all filled with depressing negative stuff. On the news, they often have a weird news of the day clip just to bring something different to the mix. True, there are good, positive stories from time to time, but a vast majority of the news we see and hear is just negative in some fashion or another.
So I go to this website and its weird how the news is just...not normal. Its normal in the fact that it is true and factual, and has relevance...but its not normal in the fact that it isn't what we regualarly are exposed to. I felt weird reading it....I was like "jeesh...there actually is good news out there that doesnt bum me out or paint some sad aspect of the world."
Take a looksie and see for yourself.
Im trying to write some more...have a few threads in process...just seem to be going in 423 different directions..just hardly have any time to write anymore.
