Yes, truly, ignorance is a bliss.
After years of intensively following the media and knowing most of the things happening all over the world, I become aware how much poison a modern media produces.
So I stopped following any media.
After a year of self-imposed isolation of media, today, while waiting for a friend, I took a newspaper to browse it for fun. Murder, killing, mafia, criminal, stabbing, beating, clashes, no money, poor, deprived, handicapped, fraud, missing, property damage, theft, and the list goes on an on.
I started to search for any good news. I scanned first 20 pages, but couldn't find any. Out of at least hundred news, not a single good or positive one.
But how about a person that waited more than a year to have coffee and a nice chat with a friend. Or about a person who was, out of the blue, invited by a friend for a lunch and "glass of conversation".
Or about a clumsy kid that so much wanted to belong so went for a sport and had an excellent coach who saw that kid will never be really good in it but give the kid a place and a sense of belonging and kid won 9 medals since. Only because the coach was human and understood the kid.
Or of another kid who was so good in a sport that everyone was so jealous and had a lousy coach who cared only that most of the parents are happy. But as God closed one door, another has been opened so clever coach came and invited the kid to another club. And all kids, and their parents and the whole community was happy because they understood how much this kid can help them all achieve their best.
Will you read about it in media? No way.
So ignorance is a bliss, stop taking poison thru radio, TV, press, portals, and Internet in general (social networks particularly).
Unfriend all negative people, people spreading poison and misery, those that feed on negative emotions, and surround yourself with positive ones.
And as you become more positive, you'll attract into your life even more positive things. Trust me, it is easy if you try.
