I am so impressed by the ‘rest of the world’. This is what I found newsworthy today:
I am under the weather. Our yard is flooded. It has been a crazy summer. The dogs enjoy playing in the mud and reward me with muddy pawprints. I try to cheer myself up because I have the tendency to feel sorry for myself when I have a simple cold. I don’t like feeling so blah. Today I searched for oddities in the world news: for the things that make us shake our heads and we stare at the screen and wonder what on Earth people were thinking.
Collecting ‘good news’. It doesn’t get better than that.
How much more interesting this world becomes when you ignore the front pages of magazines and newspapers. It’s almost like the ‘real life’ stays hidden behind all the sensationalism.
How can we not hear about this in our regular news every day? What am I not getting?
As the week comes to an end…how many Monarch butterflies are there?
How beautiful this world would be if we focused on events that don’t make the front page in every country.
No markets. No tariff reckoning. No politics (or not much). A different angle through the looking glass. Perhaps stories on pages 2, 3 and up are more interesting than front-page news?
Sometimes, when you look at the bigger picture, your own problems don’t seem so big anymore. Maybe that’s what World News is supposed to do? To bring things back into perspective?
