Something that’s certainly contributed to my peace this week on this island is that I haven’t followed the news at all. I still believe remaining informed is an important responsibility of citizenship, but I have struggled to find the balance. This week, being blissfully unaware of the news has enabled positivity to flow through, and helped keep the negativity out. We need to figure out how to avoid sensationalism, how to create a system that shares information without regard to profit. I can tell you one thing: the answer isn’t going to come to me this week.
