Have you ever gotten up in the morning, bursting with energy and enthusiasm for the day ahead only to slump on the couch, slack-jawed and teary from just hearing the morning headlines? Well...I have. Of course, my kids wouldn't be surprised...I mean, they know my history crying in the movie theatres during Disney movies (do they ALWAYS have to kill the mother?!). During a Christmas visit, my son Chris brought home Big Fish, which of course brought on the waterworks bigtime, and when my daughter called to say hello, Chris told her she'd have to call back, Mom was watching the end of Big Fish...and Nick, my youngest, gets out the tissues just as the movies start, just in case.
Anyhow, for those of us who might just be a little more sensitive (ahem!) there is now Happy News! And Give Me Hope, 1000 Awesome Things and of course we need warm & fuzzy ZooBorns. Check this out...
I love this. For every terrorist threat, there's hope. For every earthquake, hurricane and flood, there's love and kindness. I was married to a journalist, I know happy news can't sell newspapers, but it's kind of nice to see the better side of humanity. And baby animals whose mothers are doing quite well, thank you.
