As usual the media is bombarding us with tales of fear and tragedy. Esmeralda is certain you’ve heard this about the media – “If it bleeds, it leads”. And right now what’s bleeding is the economy, in all its phases of job loss, falling commodity prices, foreclosure levels, etc.
For so many this is a time of pain and loss, and Esmeralda is truly saddened for anyone in such a position. For none of this is the fault of its worst victims.
But rather than laying blame and pointing fingers – for there are many better versed in that than Esmeralda – Esmeralda wants to talk about the hope and vision of a positive future.
