Good Day Off for Me and Family

Today has been a day of relaxation, exercise, companionship with Melissa and our dog Daisy, and personal musings.  At the day's start I realized that the TV was on the news and there was a lot of anger...seething anger...going out from people outraged at this thing or that.  While information is a good thing in principle, how it's transmitted and how I receive it have become crucial elements of my own life in these divisive times we're living in.  I choose the path I want to go down...if others want to be slaves of media manipulation then I guess that is ultimately their own choice as well.  I find that while it's important to live each day fully mindful of the present and my surroundings, I also know that it's to my advantage to plan out at least a tentative structure for the future days, weeks and months ahead...and that's been at the roots of those musings I was referring to.  All in all, a good day, and I hope yours has gone well, too...
