@Abstract_Mazie It's ok to be afraid and worried. I'm afraid and worried too. Hopefully we all find a way to make it through, especially with God's help! You're right yk, there really is some light shining through the darkness :3

Sorry I've been busy if you are having trouble with the world today I feel you I just stay focused and add to my personal bubble so the state of things don't get me too down

Sorry, I'm not really sure what all to say, but thank you all for taking the time to comment. I greatly appreciate it. It means a lot to me. Thank you!

I choose to avoid all news outlets. They feed on negativity like it were an adictive drug. Always drawing the masses to it, never satasfying.
You never see anything wholesome, like "local Fire Fighters rescue cat stuck in tree", or any little thing that would brighten someone's day. And believe me, there's a lot of good people out there doing the things that deserve our attention. When I was in California serving a Mission for my church, we got together with locals almost every day doing some service project like giving food supplies to the homeless, or helping large families load their moving trucks on short notice, or even small acts like shoveling manuer at a horse ranch.
It's the often unhearalded acts of service that I look into.

Even in the midst the chaos and sorrows of the Ukrainean invasion going down, I guarantee there are heroes and angels lifting the feeble knees, and carying those who feel alone, or abandoned.

True, it's bleak and ugly. But these are the moments that define the character of those unheard, and unseen pure acts of genuine care, from the few who do what is right, because it is right. I wish so much that this would never happen. But I can't control other people. God doesn't control or force people either. It's up to the pure in heart to stand up and make a difference in what little sphere of influence they hold.

I hope this brings some sollace to your mind. My heart weighs heavy for Ukraine right now. I don't blame or hate Russia. I'm sure the grand majority are against this invasion. You just need to keep your chin up, square your shoulders, and keep being an influence for good in your own range. I've heard it said "the only thing it takes for evil to truimph, is for a good person to do nothing". Sometimes, all you can do is cheer up the few around you. But if everyone did just that, It would shake the whole world.

Thank you! :)
I agree with what you said about the news. It is sad that they very rarely report on anything cheerful. I agree that just sad news dominates it. :(
