A lot of the time the news we see on TV is about the negative, bad and awful things that are happening in the world. We often hear sensationalized stories about robberies, murders, wars and “what’s in your dinner that you shouldn’t be eating” reports, which seem to outpower the good things that have happened in the world. If you want in on the positive spin, I’ve found a couple websites that balances out the bad in the news.
This site boasts, “We believe virtue, goodwill and heroism are hot news. That’s why we bring you up-to-the-minute news, geared to lift spirits and inspire lives. Add in a diverse team of Citizen Journalists reporting positive stories from around the world, and you’ve got one happy place for news.” Happy News covers practically every aspect of your life – from business, to science, to health, and the arts and the environment, there’s a little “happy” for everyone.
The happy people who operate this site have this to say,”In a world that seems ever more cynical and full of bad news, Optimist World chooses to counteract this by bringing you inspirational stories and positive news from around the globe to show that humankind can be good news too.”
What’s cool about Optimist World is that it features companies that are doing good things, and profiles awesome charities who are changing the world, and it even has its own TV show. Check these sites out, and you’ll definitely find lots of things to smile about 🙂
