New Forum: Uplifting News + Your Thoughts?

[Dev]

Evening all!

Just a quick note here to let you know I've created a new forum in the News section down below.  Called Uplifting News, the aim is to gather stories that lift the spirits.  There is no requirement that the stories be related to the transgender condition - all they need to have is a feel-good ending.  With everything going on in the world today, I think we could all benefit from seeing the good that's still out there.

Next on the list is my question to you - I'd like to know your thoughts on how we can improve, what we can do better, and what we're already doing well.  This site exists for you, so I like to check in from time to time to see how we're doing in the eyes of those who matter.

Thanks to all of you for just being you!

That sounds like a good idea. All these news reports of gloom and doom can get downright depressing.

Agree.  I think this is a good idea too.

Hi Everyone,

I think this is a great forum! We need this to balance out the arg! stuff. I like good, happy news better. Does it need to be national or world level news, or local, or even neighbourhood or family news. Hopefully just as long as it's happy, funny, and/or uplifting!

 

Lots of love,

Timber Wolf?

P.S.- Also, does it have to be in the news and have a link to the story, or can we simply write about it?

[MaryEllen]

I'd say, all of the above.

Great idea.  The search for something  positive is alone a good way to pull me away from the horrors i see and can allow myself total into.  The sun is shining regardless of the difficulties the world faces.  Today is beautiful.  I feel so much better when i concentrate on that.

 

Hugs,

 

Charlize

Good news always brightens the day a little. I like to listen into local broadcasts from Europe on the radio when I get chance, and take in their local good things. It makes a difference to the, almost always gloomy, international news broadcasts.
