"Bring me Sunshine!"

Have you ever found yourself avoiding some people because of their attitudes?  Negativity, cynicism, critical conversation can drag us down. 

Ever thought about the news in that context?  Is it any wonder that the advertisers of evening news programs are often drug companies promoting cures for the symptoms of various ills?  

More than one person has asked, "Who wouldn't feel sick after watching this litany of bad news?"

And is it any wonder that some news programs have realized a steady diet of negativity needs some balance.  Often they shine a ray of light in that direction by presenting a human interest story that embodies the values we all want to hear more about.

You don't have to join the crowd of heaviness.  God has given every one of us the ability to appreciate and value the beauty and good all around.  And to help others do the same.  Each of us can be a doer.

Here's a whimsical approach to the ability of one person to make a difference.
