Breaking News

Every time you turn the television on these days there's breaking news I can remember the days when a big news story was a fireman rescuing a cat from a tree was something we viewed What has happened to our world to make it seem to be out of control All this madness going on out there is surely taking its toll Instead of talking things out these days, a person's first reaction seems to be rage Our news media continues to spread bad news on all the world's stages All is not all bad with our planet, however the feel-good stories are not all being told We need to work together to allow innovative new ideas to unfold If you checked your plumbing lately you would probably find the middle class going down the drain The high cost of living is, and the struggle to survive is simply insane The only breaking news I want to hear, that peace and harmony have returned to our lives Things have to change for the better if we want our planet to survive

Hello John, You captured the chaos and longing for change in our world today. Your message is like a mirror reflecting the tumultuous times we live in, where breaking news dominates and hope feels scarce. Yet, amidst the darkness, your call for unity and innovation shines like a beacon of light. - Blessings, Daniel
