Good News

Tsunami here, earthquake there. Fighting over here, warring over there. Embezzlement in this place, overdose in that place. Bad news, after bad news, after bad news permeates the airwaves, and lest it be forgotten, political bantering raises its ugly head. But what if...what if, for one day, in one day, there was only good news? The news reports might read:

“People got along today, and there were no fightings about anything anywhere. Husbands and wives never said a cross word, neighbors had no disputes today, and everyone shared everything with everyone else. Siblings set aside differences, and their enjoyment of each other was exuberant with laughter. There was no greedy evil anywhere, and those who do not have never took exceeding advantage. No shootings were reported, and not a robbery or theft was conducted. There were no swear words spoken, and not a gossiping tale was told. No one lied, adultery was no where to be found, and children were actually obedient and respectful to their parents. There was not one lustful thought, no one coveted, and no one in the world was jealous or envious. Today was a remarkable day where there was not a shred of bad news to be shared anywhere at all. Everything was good news today.”

Poof! Back into the real world. Now, where is that CNN, MSNBC, Fox, etc. when one needs them? A person needs his or her fix on the bad news out there, doesn't he? Doesn't she? Until tomorrow...Why Say More?
