I used to get up first thing in the morning and turn on the radio to catch up on the news (I do not watch television). The number of murders in our city was rising so the news media would focus on that fact intensely. The result was me feeling unsafe in my own home. I would carry around that negativity and fear with me all day. Since I've stopped, life has started again. Instead of the news in the morning, I'll medidate or update my blog.
