Watching the News

So. much. noise.
Why do I even need to know about this?

Much of the news is about evil in the world. Like Maduro

So I have a choice.

To take in the news and treat it in a reasonable manner, or to not watch the news.

If I were to read the news, what is the most reasonable attitude for it?

1. Forgive

Interpret why the characters involved in the news behave in the ways they do.

2. Forget

This is not so much an action, as something that just happens. Just don't try to stop it.

3. Understand why you feel bad

Grab a cup of tea, sit yourself in a comfy chair, and ask yourself why you feel bad for other people who are a long way away.

4. If it does cause a bad reaction, practice one of those clearing techniques and meditate on it until the topic feels alright again..

For example, Zero Limits.


1 – I Am Sorry
2 – Please Forgive Me
3 – Thank You
4 – I Love You
By now, the sarcastic in me is saying "why even touch the news if it's so much work?".
Many do choose to ignore the news. Our media has always had its own agendas besides portraying the reality.
