Peaceful Reminders

Everyday we are bombarded with the negative aspects of humanity. This fear perpetuates more fear and reactivity. In actuality, the percentage of peaceful people far outnumber the criminals and violent acts magnified by our media. We are all becoming desensitized. I propose that during news programs that the actual percentage of say serial killers or arsonists is listed in regards to the surrounding population. I also feel that at least one Good Act should be reported in every news program. This "Humanitarian" Award should be given every month to a local citizen who has changed the lives around them in even the slightest way. Our new Heros are those evaporating fear and spreading light to all. Let's glorify these real people who carry light and love instead of guns and verbal violence.

Reward: Using my name as part of the Humanitarian Award.
