Lately, I’ve heard several people say they’ve stoppped watching the news. That’s not such a great option for me because a) the Sunday New York Times with a hot coffee is one of life’s great pleasures and b) I need to feel connected to what’s going on in the world – even if it’s bad.

I was furious to read about the latest round of bonuses at bail out-subsidized A.I.G. while 26,500 teachers in California are being laid off. How do I deal with my anger? I feel it. I let it run its course through my body and then I keep on doing what I can in the world with an open heart.
