CoreniaBug Comedy: Let's Turn Off The News and Share a Laugh
There is no doubt that we are living in a moment in time when many of us are glued to the news. Maybe you're a Democrat and you watch CNN every moment of the day, or you are a Republican and watch Fox News. Many families have been torn apart, ruined, or strained due to the inability to put aside certain beliefs.
It does appear that attempting to change someone's political beliefs does appear to be almost impossible and straining for every party involved. Have you got sucked into a debate that left you stressed? More than likely this has happened to almost everyone at some point in time ever since 2019 rolled around. I think we all know what this was.
Things are changing on TV, News, Movies, and even how we communicate to people. Life has felt like it has been turned upside down for many of us and trust me this has affected me as well at some point in time. I have recently talked to someone that was in a relationship for approximately 2 years. This person said they separated from their significant other recently because of their political beliefs. I know this was not the first time in history, but in 2023 it is becoming more common. Has anyone else experienced something similar, maybe a strained relationship at the moment?
Since we know it is nearly impossible to change someone's political, and religious beliefs and usually leads to stress from both parties, maybe we should ignore the subject altogether? It does seem as though this is a double edge sword. If you mention politics to a friend, family or co-worked then an argument will ensue, but if you don't mention something then you may be suppressing your emotions which could lead to a major argument down the road.
This does seem to be a predicament. I absolutely do think it is possible, though. There are many more topics to talk about in this life we could dive into, go back to using an imagination. I am not saying we should shut out the news, but regulate how we process the information and limiting how much we think of it. We may have the luxury in this time we live in to dwell of the news more because we are, in many ways, have a much more comfortable and secure life than we did a hundred or more years ago. Not for all, but for many of us.
It is easy to make some mad, upset, or cry, but it is not as easy at times to make someone laugh. We can work on ourselves by making others feel good. Sounds cheesy, but it's true. Let's spread a little humor, and make someone close to us laugh. I wish everyone the best of luck in the search for happiness. Have a Fantastic Day!
