Media Shmedia

I've come to the conclusion-finally!-that media is just stupid and depressing.  Yes, there are problems aplenty in society and in the church, but there are so many good and pure and lovely things . . . but you won't hear about the good, pure or lovely things in popular media; instead you'll hear about murders and hate crimes and stories of tragedy told and retold and analyzed and picked apart and analyzed again.  Be careful of the types of media you expose yourself to; I can tell you from experience that it can change your entire outlook and make you cranky and grumpy, world-weary and just no fun to be around.
