“Our Nation is going to the dogs!”

“There’s nothing good on TV these days!”

“The news is so liberal biased now!”

“There aren’t enough jobs to go around!”

“Higher education is too expensive!”

“My hot pocket is still frozen in the middle!”

Human beings are complainers. We whine and we cry, we bitch and we moan, about EVERYTHING. We complain to our families, our friends, our neighbors and teachers. We complain ABOUT our FRIENDS, FAMILIES, NEIGHBORS, AND TEACHERS. HELL! This blog itself is a complaint about how much we as a race complain, spewed out into cyberspace for all to hear! Everything is wrong, everything is broken! We’ve been so caught up in the bad lately, we’ve forgotten the good. The topics most commonly discussed around the water cooler are about what we lack, what we need, what we think we deserve. We talk about what’s done wrong, why it’s wrong, and how it’s only going to get worse. Why don’t we ever talk about what’s done right?

There’s still good in the world! It’s always happy hour somewhere right? Somewhere a child was born. Somewhere, someone just fell in love. Somewhere, someone is eating a Milky Way candy bar! So, why not dwell, just for a moment, on all that is great. I share with you my friends, a list or all that is still good, right, and true with this world. This is a list of what makes my life worth living, in no particular order. Enjoy!
