I rarely watch the news because it always has so much depressing shit. Last night I was reading the local news website and I came up across this story. I knew I shouldn't have clicked on it. It was the most read story and I could not help myself. It was about a little boy that was beaten to death by his parents. Stories of child abuse and animal abuse really get to me and I just got my period too......so I was feeling extra sensitive and emotional. I did not even read the whole article. I just could not go on but what u read was enough. I was so traumatized. It ruined my whole day. I kept thinking about it and every time it did.....it made me cry. I feel a little bit better than yesterday now. But it still haunts me and creeps into my mind. I prayed for the poor baby last night and they had a picture of him so it made it more personal. I wish I had never seen it. Ignorance is bliss. I can't take stories of child abuse and animal abuse. They get me upset for days. I know I am overly sensitive because I am extremely empathetic and with all that cancer I have. Anyone else experienced something similar? How do you get over it? All I know is that I am really going to stop reading/watching the news. It is always so sad and mostly negative. All these pedophiles and child abuses. There is so much evil in the world.
