18th Dec 2008(Good News)

Don't get me wrong, I'm not here to peach some religious message.

I here to write about this topic called "Good news".

As you all know, news got good and bad.Good news uplift the soul and bring smile to face.Bad news brings anxiety, fear and uncertainly.

The most common and interesting news that people like to hear or read is the Bad news.This kind of news can be found in almost every Newspaper.From Gossip in the entertainment world, to unfortunate accident in the real world and weird thing people get themselves into.These bad news capture attention of million reader compare to the good news that Bill Gate is giving billion of dollar to charity.

Even through it is interesting to read, the effect of bringing the fear of uncertainly is there.

I once read a Book written by Mary Carlomagno titled "Give it up!My year of learning to live better with less".The book is about her journey to give up certain habit in life to live better within a year.

In one of the chapter that caught my attention is her attend to give up reading newspaper.

Can you imagine that? Giving up reading newspaper?Is like shutting yourself away from the happening world.People will be laughing at anyone who doesn't know what is going on in this exploding world of information.

She replace her habit of reading newspaper by reading Poems.Positive and uplifting poems was read, first thing in the morning, instead of newspaper.

Not only did she save a huge amount of money from not buying newspaper, she felt really good and motivated first thing in the morning.It really a food for thought.

The cure for "monday blues"? A good book that tell you how wonderful this world is.
