The great lie of modern media, from news, to marketing, to entertainment, is to convince us that everything is causing us to suffer.  In fact, very few of us actually are suffering.  But the illusion has us believing that at every perception of inconvenience, or pain, requires a massive cry for help.  The actual need is for us to abandon the perceived need for pity, and to reach deep inside ourselves for strength; that which comes from a sense of purpose.

Humbly yours,
