In light of the atrocities perpetrated in Paris, Beirut, Baghdad, and elsewhere in the past day, even the past years, I still believe there is good in the world. It’s hard to look beyond the violence and the loss, but good people do make up the majority of the world. Maybe the good people don’t get enough credit for positive things they do. We as a society need to change that.

I leave you with Louis Armstrong’s rendition of “It’s a Wonderful World.” One of my favorite songs. When things look dismal, when you feel hopeless, and the world around you crumbles, listen to this song.
