I totally agree with you. I stopped watching and listening to news just because of that. Everyday media is just filled with violence, politics, wars, natural disasters, sick people, poverty... I'm not some cold-hearted human being, quite the opposite. But it's really stupid to think that everything is so bad. I know people are corrupt, some politicians are just for the number, that violence is going up and the difference in wealth between regular workers and office people is getting biger, etc.. But, what can I do about it? Nothing. I know I could always give away all my belongings to someone who has less. And I could be unhappy because of things happening around. But yet again. Who would benefit from that. Insteed being sane human being trying to do my best with my own life and for my family I could just easily focus on life of others, sacrifising everything. I'm not selfish, I help others in any way that I can, but on my own terms and without negative perspective from media.
