"Domestic Violence Awareness" (MSSinger)

MDJunction to me

peasha"This has been one of the most supportive places I have ever been. I found MDJ by mistaking looking for drs to help me with my many health issues and since that day over a year ago I have found a tight nit little family that keeps me going when the times are tough and offers me a place of retreat to share my successes and failures with others. I get to see the humor and seriousness of what I experience as well as the resources to learn about my health conditions. Thanks MDJ" (peasha)

Iken I agree that there are many lies out there. We hear them every day and every night. Money and power are the big two. I'm not sure how we deal with that. I suppose people have their own ways. It makes you and I upset that many can't see the deceit. I think there are those also who just refuse to look because they know their truths are anything but true. If you are right about it causing your anxiety, then you can lose it or learn to control it within yourself. We cannot change the public. Only how we perceive them and react to that. I happen to think you are right in how you see it. You do, in my OPINION, have to come to terms with the fact that most people are like that. Anger will change nothing. You are not without things you can do though. If you can remain calm, you can slowly influence people toward opening their eyes. You can't force them, but you are smart enough to gradually feed them truths in small doses. Those doses add up.

I do really get you on this and hope you can find it within yourself to not let other people have that effect on you.

May I be guided to accept others who may differ from me and always separate opinion from fact. I insist that others put the benefit of the group before anything else, regardless of a well meaning agenda. If what you say is a fact, you can back it up. If not, it's opinion and should be called that. The safety of members is paramount.

I think each media outlet is owned and operated by a special interest anyway. I don't know about you, but I see no real journalists left on TV. They are now just the hosts of tabloid TV.
