Many people are asking the question, How are we going to survive all of this?
And it’s not famine, homelessness or direct threats to our survival. The madness is simply what’s coming out every day in the news.
How do we make it through the day in the face of so much negativity streaming at us day and night?
Author Jessica Morrell asked this question on Facebook and my answer was: “Deciding to rise above it one drama at a time. Appreciating the little things. Calmly standing up to negativity.”
