I am a ‘Breaking News’ Junkie

I am making a confession!! I am a ‘Breaking News’ junkie.  I am alarmed!

Because I work from home, I can take a break every now and then and watch TV. I typically turn on the news to get the update on what is happening.  Given the rate at which events around the world are happening, the likelihood of seeing a breaking news alert is certain.

When I see that alert bar, I would suddenly drop everything I am doing and be attentive to the news. It would absorb my attention. I realised that I have become ‘addicted’ to breaking news!

I would want to be the first to know.  I listen to news online and follow a few different internet radio channels. Hmmmmm… what’s happening?

Quotations:

God starts us out on a life course to fulfill a certain purpose and then, only when we are ready, He gives us course corrections. Like a good river pilot, He steers us away from troubled waters, and like a good coach, He never puts us in the game until we are ready. The journey is never boring.

REMEMBER THIS ABOUT YOU...

  Read this out loud to yourself, and mean it!!

  I am precious, valuable, lovable and capable.
  The world will not be the same without me.
  I make a difference in this world, in the community I live in.
  I can make another person smile.
  I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
  I sing for I am loved by a great God whose nature is to give  love, mercy and grace.

  [In Hindi]
  Mai amulya hoon.
  Yeh duniya mayray bina wahi nahin rahegi.
  Mayray hone say is duniya mein kuch badlav hai.
  Mujh se doosre ke chahre pay muskuraahat aati hai.
  Mujhe bhayankar se banaya gaya hai.
  Mujhe gaana hai ki ek mahaan; ishwhar mujhe pyaar karte.
  Hain aur mayray prati daya dikhaate hain.
