Both most accurate. Glenda, I haven't seen the final article. The paper is from another city. I have no idea what she said, in the end. Almost frightening to think.

Glenda, I haven’t seen the final article. The paper is from another city. I have no idea what she said, in the end. Almost frightening to think.

I was telling DH exactly this the other day. I get so fed up with all the catastrophes we're served 24 hours a day in the media. I feel it gets to me sometimes when I'm tired and over-worked. I start feeling a slight panic, thinking: "Do I dare let my kids walk to school unaccompanied, with all the abductions and rapes and murders going on? And what if swine flu finally hits us big time and we all die? Should I really take the car, considering all the accidents that I read about every single day? And what if the storm comes?" I realize there's a need to report the bad stuff. We need to know what's going on so that we can be aware. Still, are there no more happy stories out there? No more good deeds being done? I for one feel I lose hope at times, and I hate that feeling. Without hope we have nothing, nothing at all. Also, good for you that you stood your ground! I wonder sometimes if reporters are truly interested in finding the truth, or if they're only interested in telling a story from their own angle. What's objective these days? It's like if the story doesn't sell, it doesn't exist. On another note: thanks for the article on 12 Blueprints about color being able to make us nauseous. That's exactly what I meant in my comment under "Letting things be easy" when the consultant put me in deep, heavy colors. It was like being pregnant all over again. I thought I was the only one who felt colors this way (I get a headache from looking at icy turquoise too) and it was really uplifting to read that this is quite a common phenomenon. Thank you for that! Christine,
