Be the good news

A little good news. That’s all I was hoping for. Not a lot of good news. I wasn’t going to be greedy about it all. Just a little would do the trick. But good news seems to be a rare thing these days.  Doesn’t it seem like everything has turned into just one bad reality show. For it to be a successful reality show you need conflict, arguments, confrontations, a little (or a lot) of tragedy and constant oneupmanship. Anything less is considered boring.

But I really just wanted to look around and see, hear, touch,  smell, taste a little good news. But when none was anywhere to be found, I realized that it had to start with me. It has to start with you. It has to start with us. We need to create our own good news. We need to mold and shape our experience so it is good. We need to believe that life is all good. A gift. A blessing. A moment.

So let’s begin the process. Let’s be our own good moment. Each others good moment. Reach out and make a little good news.  Make someone’s day good today. Be the light in a dark corner. Be the smile in a lonely place. Be a helping hand to someone who has given up hope. Be that which you are seeking.
