A reflection on the state of the world

The world is full of troubles and strife
From war in Ukraine to climate crisis
From rockets and air strikes to riots and protests
From censorship and culture wars to nuclear waste

How do we cope with the breaking news blues?
How do we find hope in the midst of chaos?
How do we stay informed without getting overwhelmed?
How do we make sense of the stories that matter?

Maybe we need to take a break from the screens
And reconnect with nature and our dreams
Maybe we need to listen to different voices
And respect diverse perspectives and choices
Maybe we need to celebrate the good things
And remember the joy that life can bring
Maybe we need to act with compassion and grace
And make the world a better place
