The Nightly News is a Bunch of Hooey

Several weeks ago, I was at a work related event and listened to a motivational speaker who was truly moving. He made one request of us at the event.....turn off the evening news for a week. He guaranteed it would improve our attitude and mood.

His words have lingered in my memory for several weeks now.

It seems so simply.....turn off the evening news for one week. But I still have my doubts. Can I survive?

Then I read a good friend's blog, KC at Over My Head and I realized that it was that simple.
Our good friend, Christy Couch Lee, Cee Lee Communications , has written a great article about life and how quickly it can change.  It's a touching story about a family and how Braham cattle brought them such joy. Christy's article, The Gift of the Braham, will bring you to tears, just as it did for KC and I.

It's an important reminder of the simple things in life and how truly important they are. I celebration of Christy's masterpiece and to add a little ray of sunshine in my life, I am turning off the evening news for a week.

Can you do the same?
