Creating balance in the world of news

I don't have a TV and hardly ever read newspapers because I feel that the news brainwash me into believing that the world is a terrible place. It is not true and I don't want to believe that. While the stories reported in the news may be true, they are not the only thing that is true about this world. There is a lot of positive stuff going on that is true as well.

I am glad that I recently came across two sources of news that report positive news. Reading those news lifts my spirit, and I hope that they contribute towards balance in the reported news. I don't want to advocate denial of the negative things that are happening in the world, but I do want to advocate the reporting of positive happenings around the world, just as a reminder that they also exist and that the world is not "all bad."
