“If we want to change the story of the human race in the 21st century, we have to change the stories we tell ourselves.”

Lots of good things going on out there—the editors of the piece linked below have a particular fondness for animals, but keep reading. Why the media doesn’t focus on more of this—it’s mostly hard news, not feel good human interest stuff--is beyond me.

There are lots of problems in America and the world, but also lots and lots of good things going on, as the link below illustrates. Time to embrace the good while still working towards our individual visions of how to do better.
