IS YOUR VIEW OF THE FUTURE CLOUDY? CHANGING YOUR LIFE WITH WORDS - DAY 60

During these chaotic and worrisome times in the world, do you find your view of the future is cloudy or even murky?  Sometimes just trying to figure out what is true and what is fiction in the daily news broadcasts and publications makes one's head spin.  It makes one feel as if the world we live in is going to hell, that we have lost our moral compass, discarded our sense of respect and dignity, and that too many of our fellow citizens no longer have any semblance of integrity or decency................and all of those feelings can overwhelm a person in the course of a single day.

In order to sort out the important from the unimportant, the true from the untrue, and the things about which you have control versus those over which you have no control you have to accept responsibility for ferreting out the information.  There are many well-written articles available to you on the Internet with suggestions for how to achieve calmness and to clear up the darkness you may be seeing or feeling about the future for yourself and loved ones.  Just Google the words "find clarity" because:

Losing Things - Like Moral Compasses

The Penn State scandal has just made me ill. Our justice system says that we are innocent until proven guilty, but from the media coverage it would seem the only true innocence was that of the alleged victims. Even though I am not a sports fan (in the true sense of the word), I have always known who Coach Paterno is and his stellar reputation. To see his career end in such a tawdry, ignoble way is a disappointment to so many. I don't know what to think about the grad student who witnessed one of the alleged episodes of molestation. I keep asking myself WHY did he not intervene to rescue the child who was being molested? Why, indeed! While I can accept that witnessing something like that would be completely shocking and unsettling, I cannot imagine that any decent person would not try to intervene immediately to rescue a child. And then I feel certain a decent person would contact the local police at once to be sure that no other child would fall prey to such abuse. When all is said and done, this news is one more indication that the moral compass of our society has been lost.
