Re: Sometimes the World is Overwhelming
Sometimes when i find myself watching or listening to the news i have to ask myself what directly effects me, if the bulletin doesn't effort me directly i have to let it go. It doesn't mean i don't care, it just means i cant take much more. My Alexa beside my bed goes off at a programmed time to give me a note on the weather and some relaxing music followed by the latest news. Before it even gets to say.....today the leading news is...i tell it to stop!

Understood, and I try to filter out a lot, but certain things should be tracked.
