“If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change”. The photo is from the book “Message for the Tribe of Many Colors,” and the quote here is Wayne Dyer. The photo, a message I try to articulate myself sometimes, regarding not watching the news. It’s never my intention not to care, but rather not contribute to the story we don’t want to live. I believe in science that all there is is energy, and my spiritual side says this energy is a conscious energy, love, and that the world we live in moves to create in response to our inner world, our thoughts, and our beliefs. So, in recent years, I have decided that it does the world (and myself, because there is no separation) more good to move myself to a state of gratitude than to join in and contribute to the story and outcomes we don’t want. I think Keisha Crowther explains this very well here in her book. On a personal note. A few years ago, I was lying on the couch resting, and I heard a male voice say these exact words, “Any time spent not watching TV is time better spent.” I was wowed, of course, like any of us would be, to hear such a voice, thankful for the divine guidance, and also was amused and jokingly thought, “Hey, the TV’s not even on.” However, I believe that this message includes watching the news. We are here to exchange love with others and to show up as love in every given moment, and it begins with our thoughts.
