I think it is human nature to be drawn to the bad and horrifying..."like watching a train wreck". There is something so mesmerizing about the bad, yet we don't realize how we internalize these dark influences. Personally, I prefer the good stories. Those are the ones I generally share with others. Heroes, generous selfless acts, thinking of the common man, doing things for the greater good. There is encouragement. Many times the bad stories are so overwhelming. This world we live in is so conflicted, sometimes it is daunting to think of the future. I try to limit my "intake" of bad, fiction or true.


We need more good stories. We all need to believe that people, that this world is inherently good.
