If you watch the news, chances are you feel the world is a dark and scary place. This is because the predominant focus of mainstream media is to share stories that create a perception of fear in its viewers, causing them to live from a mentality of ‘lack’.
Thinking that there is not enough, other people are inherently greedy, and that one needs to consume more in order to survive are all outdated belief systems. The world is only as limited as you perceive, and only as negative as you choose to believe.
The truth is that while there are negative happenings in this universe, there are just as many positives to balance them out. Recognizing that the universe is inherently perfect may help you make sense of what mainstream media shares, and also help you to form your own conclusions on where we are as a society and where the world is headed.
