The evening news overwhelms us with the bad things that happen – the part of the glass that is half empty. This presentation is focused on good news – the part of the glass that is half full. We will draw from contemporary news but also observations from the instructor’s 90-year sojourn on this planet earth, including some commentary on the crisis we are now experiencing. You are guaranteed to leave this course feeling a little lighter, a little better for having attended. It might even save you a visit to your counselor. A little humor serves as a lubricant.
