This is helpful and exactly what I needed to hear. Hope that this is true for you also.

I wouldn't have ever called you negative! We all have our moments, and we're all more than a little anxious right now :-)
Thank you for sharing this video!
A couple of nights ago we went to a concert by Ringo Starr and his All Star Band.
Wow, what a shot of positive energy!! The entire audience had smiles on their faces, it seemed. The feeling stayed with us for quite a while afterwards.
Not only was the music fantastic, the mood was just joyous. Ringo tries to be an ambassador for 'Peace and Love" (his catchphrase) and he succeeds.
The All-Star Band members are all high-profile, highly skilled, experienced musicians who mostly had hits in the 70's and the 80's: Edgar Winter, Steve Lukather (Toto), Hamish Stuart (Average White Band), Colin Hay (Men at Work), Warren Ham (Toto and Kansas), and Greg Bissonette. Ringo does a number of Beatles and "Ringo" songs, and each band member leads numbers that were their hits back in the day. It is a fantastic collaboration and they all look like they are loving it.
The really crazy thing is that Ringo is 82 and could pass for a fit 55 or 60.
Anyhow, if you are anywhere near a concert on this tour I highly recommend you try to get tickets and just GO. You will feel so much happier with the world if you do.

There are many amateur videos of the tour on YouTube-- here's a good one:

This song spoke to me very deeply. I hope it can do the same for others:
Enigma - Return To Innocence (Official Video)
Lyrics:
LoveDevotionFeelingEmotionDon't be afraid to be weakDon't be too proud to be strongJust look into your heart my friendThat will be the return to yourselfThe return to innocenceThe return to innocenceAnd if you want, then start to laughIf you must, then start to cryBe yourself don't hideJust believe in destinyDon't care what people sayJust follow your own wayDon't give up and use the chanceTo return to innocenceThat's not the beginning of the endThat's the return to yourselfThe return to innocenceThat's return to innocence
While not exactly fitting this category, I wanted to mention I have found a lot of pleasure recently listening to BBC World Service news on Sirius. It is global, in-depth, informative and honestly, I love listening to their calm peaceful voices. I also enjoy their in-depth stories about things I didn't know were currently happening in the world or didn't know happened decades ago. Yes, U.S. news is covered well , but I like understanding what is happening globally also and this is a great source for both.
If you have access to it, give it a try for a change of pace or for a "slice" of your news pie.
I have another spiritual song for you all that is again from Enigma.
At the very beginning of the song it is sung in sanskrit and just afterwards, there is some Gregorian mantras being sung as well.
The video is really fitting with the song I think. When you see nature and all life contained with in it, and the child like innocence of all living things. It definitely pulls at the heartstrings (well, it did for me anyway haha) but I think it is worth it for the overall message and experience.
Enigma - The Child In Us
Prasanna vadanaaM saubhaagyadaaM bhaagyadaaMHastaabhyaaM abhayapradaaM maNigaNair-Naanaavidhair-bhuushhitaaM(who is of smiling face, bestower of all fortunes,Whose hands are ready to rescue anyone from fear,Who is adorned by various ornaments with precious stones)Puer natus est nobis,Et filius datus est nobisCujus emperium super humerum(For to us a child is born,To us a son is given:And the government will be upon his shoulder)Some day you cameAnd I knew you were the oneYou were the rain, you were the sunBut I needed both, cause I needed youYou were the oneI was dreaming of all my lifeWhen it is dark you are my lightBut don't forgetWho's always our guideIt is the child in us
I think the lyrics might be slightly incomplete because there is definitely more said both in the sanskrit and the Gregorian mantras than is listed in Google.
Anyway, I hope the song resonates with others.
