Tired

Posted by Cyn | Filed under NaBloPoMo

I’m so tired of all the depress­ing sto­ries in my Face­book news feed. Every day there’s more news about all the ground lost in women’s rights (espe­cially repro­duc­tive rights) in this coun­try, or some­thing like the ter­ri­ble results of the Wis­con­sin efforts to recall Gov­er­nor Walker, or some child gone miss­ing, or peo­ple shot dead while doing some­thing innocu­ous like attend­ing a funeral (that hap­pened in Dekalb County, here in the metro Atlanta area, yesterday).

So I delib­er­ately try to find pos­i­tive things to coun­ter­act all that neg­a­tive stuff. I’m always on the look­out for them, and would love any sug­ges­tions y’all have for such.

  • Pos­i­tive Press, home of the Pos­i­tive Quote of the Day list, Pos­i­tive News list, and other resources.
  • The Daily Good is an entire web site full of good news, with a mail­ing list you can sub­scribe to in order to get a daily dose deliv­ered up to your mail­box. Of course they’re on Face­book, too.
  • Open Your Mind is a Face­book com­mu­nity full of good stuff.
