I was chatting with a friend who is very refreshing to speak to at the moment.
Anyway…the subject of propaganda came up. I made the comment that one thing I have seen since the start of this year is how rapidly news really does spread these days. I think I knew that via technology news could spread quickly. But now it really does spread quickly. Perhaps that is partly because people have been deliberately making sure they watch the news because they feel they need to be aware of what is going on.
This year news, anxiety, panic, uncertainty, outrage and more have spread like wildfire. I am partly glad I have watched less and less of the news recently….work is leaving me with no energy for the news.
Then we started talking about numbers. Apparently three can be used as confirmation or for emphasis, to firmly establish something. Anyway…yes, we had a fascinating discussion. I think my friend is very wise.
In such a short space of time…so much has changed. Everyone is wondering…what next? I think there are some people who are still harping on about when things are going to go back to “normal”. Such a hard to define word at the moment.

I am going to keep my eyes focused on what matters most! The human family will learn how to live the way we were designed. We will learn to take care of our planet, it’s creatures and each other, so that we all thrive!
