The Path of Hope

It was a random Facebook post by a young friend of mine that seemed to be filled with despair about another horrible human tragedy that prompted this particular episode of the Life 2.0 podcast. The post started with..."What's happening to our world?..." and went on from there. I've been pondering (once again) what appears to be the deterioration of the human condition, until I think back to the time I was the same age as my friend, and all the difficult, horrible, low-down, bad news of that time. The "same shit different day" line comes to mind. A perspective shift is needed if we are to maintain our spiritual balance, and I suggest you take a stroll through history through times much more difficult than we are living in now, and consider that if your moral compass is determined by someone in political office, you're giving up your inner GPS to the headlines, and not your lifelines.
