Ya know.
I come here to this site to find inspiration.
And it seems there is a daily video or other crap clip showing what a lousy ficking world we live in.
I dont care about all that @#$%&.

Depressed out of my sku7ll from some of thes posts.

if the world didn't appear lousy sometimes

maybe then there would never be the possibility

of experiencing the desire to make things better

and the act of doing just that

maybe the world is so frunckled up

so that nobody feels that they have to save the entire world themselves

cuz that would be hard to do... in a single lifetime, anyway

so, in a way, the frunckled-upness, is kinda freeing

it frees us to be content to do our little part here and there

yes, frunckled-up is a new word

put it in your pocket and whip it out sometime

Vinny, there are so many things that are messed up in the world that I find it too depressing to focus on them. To keep my sanity I avoid TV news programs and skip over the frunkled up (thanks, jono) stuff in newspapers and internet sites (including this one). But even trying to avoid that stuff, I somehow learn about major events anyway. The best I can do is to do the best I can to search out positive people, good news, and things that make the world a better and happier place. Some people need to talk about horrible things to try to come to grips with them and cope. Like you, I prefer not to be bombarded with it. However, I appreciate other interesting and inspirational items - not just raw food.

Well, Vin, things are going badly in so many ways that affect how we live now and how we may live in the future, it pays to be aware of trends. Not overwhelmed by them, mind you, but I don't think it's healthy to be insulated against bad news. 'Cos what's behind it is still out there and will reach you eventually. The trick is to register what's going on without getting depressed about it. And it's a tricky trick, for sure!

You have choices in life. For instance, on this site all non-raw issues are covered where you are posting right now. If you wanted to avoid anything that you see as negative, simply avoid this forum and stick to the first three. This is not the first time you have made this point. I believe that you are responsible for what you want to experience. It's okay if you CHOOSE not to read the news or listen to certain things, but other people have the right to post and read things that you may not enjoy.

I responded to you this morning Vinny and inadvertently hit the backbutton and lost the post

but on the way to work i heard this song on the radio that made me think of you and your post .. so here it is hope you like it ..i love this song

the song to listen to is by Robin Hopper - Make your own Peace

Listen to the News
Watch the T.V
The troubles of the world
Start small with you and me
The Price we've had to pay
For things we do and say
Multiplies through the land
and its getting out of hand

We can turn the tide
join hands with me
we'll build a bridge of hope
for all the world to see
Peace begins at home
Mend your fences now
And set our spirit free

Make your own peace
starting right now
listen to your heart
it will tell you how
End your private wars
and open all the doors
you've been hiding behind
in your mind
Don't let foolish pride
stand in the way
Of things you need to do
and words you need to say
Open up your heart
tell them how you feel
and make your peace today

...Jodi, the banana eating buddhist

Lovely, Jodi. Thanks for that.
