I think I spend too much reading the news. It’s really kind of a sideshow to real life in a lot of ways. Reading about the latest health peril for my kids probably tells me less about the risks to my kids than paying attention to what they eat, for example. Reading about Indiana’s latest economic development project is a lot less important than keeping my eye open for new clients. And, really, there is a whole lot less tragedy in my neighborhood than in the newspapers. It probably distorts the way you see the world when you are looking at all the tragedies globally and not seeing the small victories taking place locally.
Probably I won’t stop reading so much news though.
