“In a world forcefed bad news to make its citizenry pessimistic and cynical so that they will be good consumers, let’s turn the tide and begin telling the stories of the great things that are happening all around the world.”
                                                                                                                                                   Paraphrased from Patch Adams
Is there truth to the above statement, are we encouraged to be pessimistic and cynical and how then does that make us good consumers? If this is true, then let’s tell the other stories, stories that will change the world. Start a blog, or comment here, share the world changing stories.

Joshua, I hope you and your family are well.
I stumbled across your blog today and just added it to my RSS feed. Sweet!
Just yesterday I started writing my new book, and it made me sad to not be at Fido working. I hope that I find some great spot here in the city where some nice barista will let me sit for 16 hours. Can you write a recommendation for me? Then I’ll print it out on letterhead and pass it out to all the baristas in NYC and see who will accept the position of playing long-suffering employee to my never-ending patronage.
