Stop the Media Madness

I’m under the weather and having dark thoughts caused by all the media madness that surrounds us.

One story has children being killed, starved, and denied access to basic human needs.

The next story has a celebrity shaving his head. The juxtaposition is thoughtless to say the least.

I need to turn it off.  Our human obsession with rubber-necking is ruining us all.

I stop to eat some pears in syrup. I’m waiting for my head cold and sore throat to pass. My leg is slowly improving.

I’m anxious to get back to work to hopefully help some children.

The days of summer are ahead, and lengthening my media-free time is my goal.

My thoughts are turning lighter, though I’d almost welcome a sun eruption to wipe away all the vanity that passes on our screens, and this includes my own.

I have to focus on all the good that technology brings to us. I have to have faith that the good can conquer evil.

Katherine J Krein

My name is Katherine J. Krein. I lost my father in June of 2013, and then I lost my mother in November of the same year. After they both died I went through a mind-warping number obsession that has taken me years to control. This is my story. It is now 2025. I still use this site to post some poems and thoughts. My obsession has faded, however, I still notice the numbers. Faith, hope, and love is what guides me now.
