It was a good day

(the title is for Paula)

I say it was a good day, even though nothing great happened. I was just dreading it, but everything proved to be just fine, actually good. I taught my classes, which I still feel so underprepared for on a constant basis (proves to be very draining), but they were fine. Then I judged the middle school science fair projects for 3 hours, which I was originally dreading but found myself really enjoying. Then I went on a walk with Izabella in our beautiful 60 degree weather we're having right now, carrying on a heart-to-heart conversation that I found really encouraging. And the day was topped off with breakfast for dinner with the Welshes. I am surrounded by such sweet, godly, amazing people. God is so GOOD! And I am more and more aware of my need for Him every hour.

Why doesn't the media report on good things happening around the world?

I have many reason why I resent the media. I don't have time to thoughtfully articulate them all here, but I have stumbled accross a link that epitomizes their bias and agenda. There ARE good things going on in the world. Even by G. W. Bush. It would be a nice change to hear about them. What the media withholds is as influential as the bent with which they do "report". While this isn't a full story, it makes a good point. Scroll down and read the comments, too. I found the comment by David Newton especially insightful.
