Hope?


 I saw this commercial the other day and had to find it again...and then I thought I'd share it. All you ever hear about is how the world is going down the tubes, but maybe, just maybe, if people share enough Cokes it will offset all the evil in the world and we'll finally have world peace.

Yeah, kidding about the Cokes, but it's nice to see some stats reporting good stuff for once. They had to go digging for it, yeah, but that's probably because the bad stuff they juxtapose with the good is a bit more catastrophic...stock market crashes vs. number of versions of "What a Wonderful World," etc. The message there, I believe, is that good acts may be less newsworthy in society's eyes because it's quieter, but there is more of it and often it affects each of us more personally.

So, maybe there's hope for us yet, if moms keep making chocolate cake and factories churn out more teddy bears. Here's hoping.
