What many don't realize is that besides inadequately reporting on some of the biggest scandals and greatest corruption in our world, the major media also does a lousy job of reporting on the most inspiring things going on. They tend to believe that in order to sell, news has to be sensational with lots of blood, guts, and tears. This has caused the media to greatly skew our perception towards the dysfunctional part of our world while neglecting the many amazing things happening all over.

If people knew the huge numbers of individuals and organizations coming together to focus on building a better world for all of us, they would be astounded. The six-minute video Blessed Unrest does a fantastic job of showing this. That is why, despite all the craziness and unpredictability of our world, I am very optimistic that together, we are making a big difference. I believe it's only a matter of time until we see some major, positive changes in our world.

JB: Amen to that! I can't wait to check out some of the other sites. Anything you'd like to add before we wrap this up?

FB: I'd like to leave you with a paragraph from the home page of WantToKnow.info.

WantToKnow.info presents this information as an opportunity for you to educate yourself and others, and to inspire us to join in working together for the good of all. We shine light into the unconscious shadows of ourselves and our world with the intention of inviting us both individually and collectively to make more conscious choices which allow us to step ever more fully into our magnificence and to build a brighter future for us all.

Thank you, Joan, for helping to shine light into some of those dark shadows and for joining me in helping to build a better world. This is the kind of exchange that I know makes a difference in our world.

JB: Thank you! It was a pleasure speaking with you, Fred. Keep up the good work!
