Excellent News

On the plane the other day, I was sitting next to a lovely professor who works as a scientist in fisheries. He talked to me about the hope he has for the planet, and the fact that he volunteers on committees that help enhance the environment, and that most of his colleagues do as well. It was inspiring. It got me thinking about the abundance of good people out there.
The Good News: My experience is that for every person doing harm in the world, there are thousands doing things from the goodness of their hearts. Volunteer earth heroes, crossing guards, advisory committee members for Global Peace projects, my client who cares for her ailing mother, my girlfriend who plants trees in parks. I like to rescue stray dogs and pick up garbage in the forest that I walk in. And what about the news that the resilient bushes and plants are coming back after the fires in LA, the hearts of the people re-building New Orleans, the new discoveries around clean fuels being made weekly, and the absolute abundance of Mother Nature? The good news each day outweighs bad news by a million to one. Isn’t that refreshing?
We forget that the reason we call it “the news” is that the norm, the way life is by default, is wonderful, joyful and filled with miracles. It’s news because bad things are truly not the norm.
Create your own news today! Collect evidence for what is right in the world today—not because you are avoiding the tragedies and wars, but because you simply want a realistic view of what is actually going on, instead of allowing someone else to tell you. (As a side bonus, by focusing on good things, you expand them, of course!)
