We live in a time when liars are supposed to take care of verifying information, thieves are supposed to take care of your money, and murderers are supposed to take care of your health. It's only natural to feel hopeless at some point when we focus so much on the bad things. So, if the burden gets too heavy, just spend some time relaxing out of this nightmare of a world. Remind yourself of hope, humanity, humility, love, affection, care, etc. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFKTEaq-WA4
People are much more productive when they are positive. When we live in a nightmare, hope for a better future is hard, but not impossible. When people search for the ugly truth, they are bombarded with stats about death, another lie that very few people know about, the next hateful message towards them, etc. With so much negativity around us, we should have time for the positive things also. https://youtu.be/WgFBfUHI-X8?t=463
"Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy." - Mat. 5:6-7
I wanna give one some pets, but the one that gets closest always freaks out...and he kinda acts as the peanut gatekeeper, so the other ones stay back. The ravens similarly have a main guy that tries to address me, and he'll even load up on peanuts and spit them out for the other ones.
I like how if squirrels catch wind that you are looking in their direction, they'll try and look as cute as possible and go into puffball stance with their hands clasped. Now I'm sure they do it for peanuts in the long run, but they like the attention too.
