In the darkest of times, remember that hope is a resilient flame within you, capable of illuminating the path ahead. Embrace the small joys, connect with your inner strength, and trust that brighter days are on the horizon. Every challenge is an opportunity for growth, and your spirit can rise above the shadows.
@TheNewsOwl EVERY great story is one of triumph after despair.
Some have been "in the fight" too long will be too tired and that's understood. The rest of us will take up the story.
Sharing again now something I've shared in the past...
You hippies were right all along.
Things have not gone well... but you've inspired the next generation of the #TheResistance
And we will inspire the next and it will never stop.
@SECRET_ASIAN_MAN โค๏ธ beautifully said.
@TheNewsOwl we both quit posting news today we are no news buddies
@catlynne333 Honestly, I'm just not feeling it right now. I've always viewed news as a way to connect with others and share something meaningful. Itโs not really my passion. I initially aimed to highlight positive stories, but the response was minimalโmostly just a heart emoji here and there. When I shared other types of news, engagement was much higher. Now, I'm just feeling a bit weary of posting things that aren't uplifting or comforting.
@TheNewsOwl ๐ I don't 'like'everything or respond to everything as I see myself as a pest filling up your response column. But know I have enjoyed your regular postings. Sorry I didn't let you know๐ค more @catlynne333
@damselfly59 its ok i was wrong to think i could help people see the danger @TheNewsOwl
@catlynne333 @damselfly59 @TheNewsOwl no that's not correct, โกโกโกLynne. Your thoughts and words, same as โกโกโกnewsyowl, are important. And appreciated.
@TheNewsOwl i always read your posts i tried to always favorite them they were great i am done too yours were better than mine i was trying to warn but it was a waste of my time
Hi dear ones, @catlynne333 and @TheNewsOwl
...newsyowl and lynne, it's never a waste of time to warn. To be engaged. To put words out to open minds and eyes.
Please continue!
Remember to take time for self-care. Breathe. Find the things that bring you joy and focus some of your effort there, every day. โจ๏ธ Do not despair. You both are so important to our community!! โกโกโก
Just a note. Shoes will continue to drop and will have effects on the R side if the Senate, which will help us all to sleep better. We don't know what's on our doorstep, but let's continue to keep looking out for one another. We're here together to get through this horrible ๐คข๐คฎ turn of events.
@TheNewsOwl You've hit on how people respond to news these days (by 'these days' I mean the Murdoch era). Feelgood stories just get an 'awww' while the written equivalent of a car wreck makes people stop & take notice. It's surprising that it happens as much on CoSo as anywhere. Frankly I liked all the feel-good stuff and wouldn't complain if that's what you went back to ๐
I agree that today isn't a news day. I don't need to analyse what happened - it won't change a thing
@BillyBones โค๏ธ Thank you, dear. When I first created a group for sharing good news, I was really excited about uplifting others. However, people seemed indifferent. It feels like outrageous headlines or stories give people an outlet for their frustrations, and honestly, that made me a bit sad.
@TheNewsOwl @BillyBones Owlie, we need to continue !!! to aggregate 'Good News' - it's one of the things that I love about #CoSo. That I can come here and usually find some!
@BillyBones @TheNewsOwl @catlynne333
@Billy-B I agree completely, today is a day to regroup within and recharge our best energies.โจ๏ธโจ๏ธโจ๏ธ If you can, find your center and your balance. ๐๐ซ๐ซ๐ซ
@TheNewsOwl yes indeed
