Looking Around For the Good Things Happening

When it comes to the news and the media it is hard to know if anything good is happening in the world. Fortunately the local news has some good stories that are happening but they don’t bring in the ratings. Actually the weather here in Western Washington brings in the ratings especially if it is raining hard or the wind is expected to be heavier than normal. The elections gave pretty good ratings as well. People are very passionate on both ends who should or shouldn’t be President. Many still haven’t gotten over the fact that Donald Trump is now the President of United States. He does seem to be an odd fellow to be the leader of the nation but that is who people voted for.  The election had a big voter turnout though still just over half of the registered voters actually decided to vote.

So when it comes to good things going on we just have to look at our own lives. I am sure most of us are doing well though there are days that are not good as others which are expected. Living in a small town like Gig Harbor good news is usually what is happening. The bad news usually has something to do with the growth of the area and what is next to being built.  For example a new housing development or a park with baseball or soccer fields; in both of those cases we don’t need to have either.

The good news is that my health is in pretty good shape right now. In fact often talking with other people the bad news does come around with those who are having health issues or someone we know just died recently. The important thing is that you have your family and life is going fine. You are making a difference in other people’s lives and they are doing the same for you. Life does seem to keep everyone pretty busy most of the time. It can lead to stress which doesn’t help for sure.  I hope that everyone is looking into what they want to do with your lives and getting into their purposes. Sending off have yourself a wonderful weekend. God bless you all.
