No. Reality doesn't frighten me, as dismal as it may sometimes be.
All I hear are bickering politicians, stories of rape, murder, assaults, arson, theft, racism, even how soon the world will come to an end!
Sometimes I just contemplate cutting myself off from the news.
Anyone else feel the same way?
A few years back is about when the news actually became good again. So much good has happened since then.My husband and I used to watch the news for about two hours a night. It would be on in the background while we did other things and often we would actually sit and watch. A few years back I had to stop--it just left me angry and sad. I still read the news (sparingly) but I never watch it. My husband will occasionally watch a bit. You'd think he was watching porn for the way he apologizes and I leave the room.
