Hate, Fear, Ignorance, and Anger are running rampant.
So is Love, Hope, enlightenment, Activism, Unity, and Compassion. But the latter is not as loud. I woke up this morning, made my coffee, and sat down on my comfy chair in my office to finish waking up. While doing so, I turned on the news and started scrolling my feed.

Depending on which algorithm you are trapped in, you may be getting more of the first list and less of the second. Or vice versa. Hopefully, you are getting a balance of both so you gain awareness that doesn’t desensitize, mislead, misinform or traumatize you. Or worst,
dehumanize you or cause you to dehumanize others.
I know it is especially hard right now, but I hope we are all putting in more effort by simply paying attention.
