If you are a news addict, you are deluged with a constant diet of bad news.
We also receive upsetting information that affects us personally.
Bad news that affects us personally may be something we should and can act upon.
This is obvious.
World events, however, are a completely different matter.
In most cases, it upsets us, but is beyond our reach for a solution.
And yet, an upsetting world event can continue to linger in our conscious thoughts and even in our dreams.
As these troubling events pile up in our memory, we become more upset because we are helpless to bring a solution.
I think we must dismiss these troubling events by focusing on those issues we CAN SOLVE.
There are plenty of people within our reach whom we can help.
There is nothing more satisfying than helping a friend or loved one.
Keep your focus on those people.
