Why do people walk right by me in the parking lot while I am returning a cart to its stall without offering to take it back to the store where they are headed? Pay it forward folks.

I don't think of it as rose coloured glasses. i acknowledge that everything is going on. I just choose to put my attention on what makes me feel good and seeing all the positive things makes me feel better than focussing on what is going "wrong". I also do my best to not contribute to the "going wrong" part.

We have all learned how to notice what is "wrong" and our radar can tend to send us in that direction in order to "avoid trouble" so it can take some efforting to notice what is going right. Maybe we all just need to remember to "be the change we want to see" and notice how many others are like us. Bet there are more out there than we can imagine.
