Is it just me or does everyone sink into a black hole of depression as soon as they turn on the TV? Fox, CNN, it's all the same deal. A mass propaganda of fear, destruction, death and corruption. I'm all for being aware of global events, both positive and the opposite, but I find this over the top.

There is never a redeeming story. Every day you'll have a new story concerning war, starvation and monstrous acts. But why never anything that brings a smile to your face? The world is full of shit and sugar. Obviously we have things to worry about and at other times one should take some time to stop and smell the roses.

Small things count. The little niceities that brighten one's day. Why do people NEVER REPORT ABOUT HAPPY THINGS. Yes, happy. Not depressing or upsetting. Happy. Stories of courage, joy, family, anything!

I'm tired of being caught up in this world of absolute terror. On my way to school I'll look around in the tram and see sullen faces. Monotonic, self-absorbed and blinded by fear, sugar and spice. I really do believe we partially have the media to blame for this epidemic.
