I have been watching very little news these days. There is very little I am actually interested in watching. I find that whenever a politician gets on television my first impulse is to change the channel. It has made me a far happier person.
There are some things of note.
I am dazzled, amazed, and impressed by the three young women who had been held hostage and abused in Cleveland. What they endured was horrific. By coming out and talking about their lives moving forward, I find they are exhibiting an amazing amount of courage and class. Their healing has a long way to go, but one cannot be anything but impressed by them right now.
I worry about the world we live in right now. Egypt is once again in a mess and so much of the Middle East is turning upside down with revolution and violence. We are seeing it in Brazil and there are moments in Europe when it is breaking out. Culturally we seem to be, as people, pulling further and further apart----and this is often goaded on----at times when we need to be pulling together.
While this may only be of interest to me, and Giants’ fans, I’m glad Victor Cruz signed a long term deal with the Giants.
Mitch McConnell and Alison Lundergan Grimes are competing against one another in the Senatorial election in Kentucky in November, 2014. It will not only be ugly, it already is ugly as there are already attack ads running for this election. AGH!!!!!
I’m guessing other people are very interested in the George Zimmerman trial. Last week, when I actually wanted to watch news for a little while, MSNBC, Fox News, CNN, and Headline News were all running the trial live.
