In this quest to be better informed, less ignorant, more aware, to make better personal choices, make a difference, influence the future to the betterment of our children, our children's children, the friends of our children's children, and even ultimately to the betterment of mankind, it can seem overwhelming sometimes.
It has been that point recently reached -- yet again, and then I remind myself to take a break and enjoy some things to remind myself of the beauty that already exists.
One such source I'd like to share is Illana Yahav and her "Sand Art," so here is just one video.
Notice the 4D quality of this type of art, for as time progresses during the process of the art, elements that are originally part of the piece, are replaced over time -- much closer to what happens in life, other than that - in a few minutes a piece of art is ended and is complete, yet life continues.
I did a search of PA, and don't find Illana here anywhere.
YouTube is filled with her clips, thank goodness for this.
Anything in this genre of existing beauty is what this OP is here to encourage from my sisters & brothers on PA, if only to be a bit of a 'turnout' on the highway of life, and maybe also to indicate that "realists" are not only about the ugly realities that are so prevalent during these days.
The degree of participation and collaboration in threads & posts like this I think will be a barometer of the balance that PA has to offer.

I would also like to thank each and every nugget that took the time to bother with signing up here on PA, to bring whatever perspective that motivated us to participate, yet participate you did.
