Is there too much adversity around? That's the general perception of the times we are in. When the society at large tends to harbour the notion that the world was a far better place in the past than what it is today or likely to be in the future, there is cause to worry.

However, the truth is that for every distressing event, there is a solution, we need to just look around. If only we can strive to identify the encouraging stories unfolding around us and spread those, the world will be more inspired and congenial.
