Eagerly waiting ...


Today morning, as usual, I connected to the Internet to read what is going on in the world. The very first news item I read which is about swine flu put me on thoughts...

I am worried about what is happening in the world currently. Most of countries have been directly or indirectly dealing with some kind of war which has become a headache to the entire world. Moreover, each and every country is suffering from the recession and struggling to recover. Climate changes happening are reported not to be for the betterment of the humanity too. Plenty of deceases have attacked the entire world and nations are trying to eradicate those. Everyday, news related with murders can be found in I would say, any of news media.

There are plenty of things world has to worry about. Adding another problem, swine flu has come to play putting world in fear and contributing to weakens world economy further.

I don't know when those problems be solved or vanished. But, I am quite happy about the fact that the No 1 problem in Sri Lanka which is the terrorism by LTTE is being destroyed with support from international community although, there is a strong support for terrorism from so called developed countries. I am eagerly waiting for a better future in my country with full of peace..

Comments:
Actually there is research that shows that the past was actually worse than the present.
Many believe that the media's wider spread of bad news (and the singular focus of only the bad) has given ppl the idea of that things are only getting worse.
 
It would be valuable to find more information about that research. Any URL would be highly appreciated. Thanks...
