Very true. I've never been one to stick my head in the sand and pretend things are rosy in the world, but I'm at a point in my life where I'm tired of being bombarded with negativity everyday. In fact, I decided today I'm going to get back to work on some things I've been putting off because of health related issues (that are finally starting to get cleared up) and focus on those things and more positivity in my life and the world. I've had nothing to do for several weeks now, and idle hands are the devil's work, are they not? I'm going to make a hard effort to keep the TV off, stay off the internet except to check my email, and steer clear of any nasty stuff, so this will be my last post for the time being. I wish you all the best, and hope you have many enlightened conversations. Peace.

The attitude of people as a collective seems to be mostly negative and bleak
Where is this source from?
Where I'm from most people seem happy and contempt are you in Iraq? Or are you just a negative person?
Clear your head and smile the world is still beautiful.
Do you believe that we are metaphysically manifesting the end of the world (or at the least, a new dark age) with our collective thoughts?

Alot of people see the headlines and assume the whole world is falling apart. A quick read through some history books however will show that things today are drastically improved from what has happened in the past.
There are also as many good things going on in the world as there are negative ones. It just comes down to what you want to focus your energy on.
Examples? Starvation and poverty is on the rise globally. It must be nice to live in a bubble.
