I've seen and heard a number of people lamenting the fact that their news and social media feeds are full lately of nothing but dark, depressing news and can't help but agree that it seems as though the world is trying its best to bring down what should be a beautiful time of year, regardless of your religious leanings (if any).
Here's the solution, and it's quite simple: If you're sitting in a dark room, you get up and turn on the light. If you're living in a dark world, go out and make some light. Steel yourself against the barrage of sadness and pain by getting out there and lessening it for someone else. Volunteer. Go out and help a friend. Visit a nursing home or a hospital. There are so many ways to help make things better, and all of them involve a little effort, but each one is completely worth it.
