ATTENTION, ATTENTION: Do You suffer From FOMO? (fear of missing out)

IN THE MIDST OF IT ALL, ARE YOU MISSING OUT?

****

Statistics say you are...

Between the news and the winter blues, things are looking kinda bleak

terror and mayhem and network ruse, in every word they speak

The highs and lows can really blow, leaves us feeling a lack of choices

Those lies are piled higher than the snow, we must learn to stop and smell the roses.

***

You don't know how, I heard you say...GOOD NEWS, I'm here to show ya

Relieve you from the games they play, with some good old fashioned schoolin'

***

Today let's meet at half past three, bring your smiles and sense of purpose

And soon you'll find your peace of mind overflowing with joy, in surplus

We'll learn to be a community that knows how to ride the currents

Balancing it all, till serenity heals with love, any disturbance
