Focussing on what is happening right

Turn on the evening news and you'll see another day's catalog of terror and trauma. Read the headlines and you'll see the hike in gas prices to $4.50/gallon. Read the business page, and you'll see which local company is downsizing. Our big picture perspective can be shaped, misshaped, by attention grabbing events.
The news doesn't cover people who had a particularly good day and return home to their happy families. The news doesn't cover the continued success of a healthy company.
Don't let the negative picture of the world/media cloud your perspective.
