It is all too easy to get sucked into doomscrolling, with endless fear-inducing headlines and stories of hardship and devastation going viral more often than not. Add to that the typical whirlwind of chaos that is most people’s busy lives, and it has become more and more difficult to see, witness, and enjoy the good and wholesome things that continue to happen on a daily basis.
