The world

So much has been happening in the world as of late it is very easy to get overwhelmed by the magnitude of what we are witnessing.  I for one have tried to take each new story with a grain of salt, whether it be political, violence or common human stupidity the number of new stories on a daily basis have begun to put pressure on me to a point where I feel it may be time to take a media blackout sabbatical. I do this when I want to take a step back from the ferocity of the world and give myself some breathing room.  I highly recommend this for anyone, it helps to cleanse the mind and spirit of the negative energy we as a species face on a daily basis.

No, I am not trying to get spiritual or New Age on anyone, I do not subscribe to the fad of the day.  I just think that once in awhile it is good for us to take a step back from the world for a period of mindfulness and reflection.  So as of this post I am going to do a media blackout for the next seven days to reflect on happening in my own life and to see how the blackout will affect my moods and interpersonal relationships, it has been years since I have done this.  I will keep my followers up to date on this blog as to how the week is progressing.  Feel free to drop me a message and I will respond ASAP.

I think we all need to take a step back for a moment to reflect  on our lives and the world.  With the terror that the world has been producing lately I feel it is a good time for personal reflection.
