I realized that there's just too many negative things in the World by simply looking at the internet. But even with out the internet I can't help watch the news again and it's all negative too.
Sadly, with the renovation everything was a mess that I didn't have time to start planting again. Every single Lettuce I had died months ago, but somehow my Okra and moringa survived as they grew bigger by the day.
What kept me more occupied was that gout pain I had. But now the pain has lessen somewhat, except when I lift heavy things.
But one thing I learned was that I shouldn't let the bad news out there get to me but focus more on what you still have and be positive...

This is true. Everyday we hear a lot of sad news. News about deaths by typhoon Ompong here in the Philippines is so sad. Also I heard there deaths also from hurricane Florence in America. Can there be a day that we will not here these sad news anymore? I pray and hope so. But looking at the trend of the news right now its quite impossible.

Its work of nature. There is nothing you can do about it. All you have to do is to prepare well. You can pray to God about it. Pray that He will spare you and many people around.

@Letranknight2015 Its so true. I agree with you. If we watch those sad news. We will also feel sad. Your days is no longer good anymore. Its better to watch funny videos. You can laugh your heart out. Laughter is the best medicine.

I take breaks for my sanity and get my posts are never as positive and some would like, but just how I see life apparently. I will always pay attention because the worse is getting shafted because you did not pay attention to your surroundings because you were tired of seeing negative stuff. Why I also am trying to tell people treat each other better and would not have this problem as often.

Hello @crossbones27 It's too much when I myself experience physical pain. But at least you get to know things so that you become vigilant or avoid it in the future.

@Letranknight2015 You really have to pay attention, only way I see it or they will knock at your door and seem so nice while they rob you blind. All this make everyone go to college stuff made criminals smarter also and they now playing the system. All I am saying is enjoy life and do not need to make every moment on bad stuff but just be aware of your surroundings as always but different because the criminals are so much smarter.

@Letranknight2015 yeah better focus on that how to relieve the pain. I know it requires avoiding lot of foods that may increase your uric acid. Losing weight can also help.

Got nothing else to think of besides this terrible gout pain I'm having @rsa101 I can't have negative thoughts anymore since it could affect me physically.

Since I learned the truth about the media, I stopped watching it and prefers to watch some other news here @andriaperry But I realized it was all too negative as well. Some are even fake.

That is what is said do not focus on the bad but when it is all around you it is hard not to. There is always room for positive thoughts too, like exciting things coming up in your life.

It's just so hard to focus on your mind to it until I experience this gout pain again @Hannihar I should have more positive thoughts and think more with what I still have as a blessing to it.

When you are in pain then it is hard to concentrate on other things.

Let us just hope for the better each day. God bless everyone and keep safe. We have a Typhoon in our country and I hope it will just simply disappear... I don't wish it to go any places just make it disappear.

I hope you feel better with your gout problem. Take care.
Yes we are surrounded by bad news and they impact us badly. Better to ignore them and focus more on positive thoughts.
I just take a glance of newspaper. I prefer to listen to good music in the morning to start my day than reading newspaper.

I agree. Diverting your focus on other things will make you forget about the negative elements. Hope you're feeling much better now.

Get well soon. As for me, I feel the same thing either. The news these days makes me feel sad and depressed. But I have realized that I should not let it bother me or affect me in any way, especially now that I have a lot of problems/challenges that I have to face.
