#156 News Sensory ExhausShawn

More and more, I want to watch / read, less and less of the News. 

More and more, I am less and less impressed with our species.

Mass shootings in schools, in peaceful neighbourhoods. 

Children premeditating the murder of a ‘friend’ to be with a fictional character.

Pretty much anything Municipal, Provincial, Federal or International on Politics.

Mass kidnappings of school girls, forcing them into arranged marriages, in the name of religion.

Civil wars, pretty much the globe ‘round.

Systemic homophobia, misogyny, racism.

Mistreatment of those most vulnerable in society (elderly, military veterans, children, disabled) 

Anything Kardashian / Beiber / Lohan <insert media addicted celebrity here>.

Animal cruelty. 

Still debating thinks like Gun Control, Climate Change, Who has the Right to Marry, etc in 2014.

It’s just exhausting, and thoroughly depressing. 

I need a break.

Maybe ignorance is bliss. Let's find out.
