In America…
We got the news blues.
I wonder what would happen if everyone in the country stopped reading the news and social media for 60 days. Would that break this fever? Would that temporary ceasefire end this war?
Sixty days just going about our lives. Without the hourly infusion of rage and shock and he did this and she said that. Can you imagine the collective release of felt tension? The shift in perspective? The normalcy?
It is possible. We hand the media our country and our lives with every scroll, click, and headline devoured. It is a choice. We can keep handing it to them—and lose our nation and our sanity in the process. Or we can power down our devices and flat-out refuse to participate in this scam…refuse to be had, used and abused. So that we can flat-out get back to being the United States of America.
