As I quickly scarfed down some oatmeal, needing to get back to work on my Facebook class I saw the following story jumping off the front page of the L.A. Times

SOME RAYS OF SUNSHINE FOR THE ECONOMY

It felt so good to see a headline like this and to read items like..

“Wells Fargo & Co. surprised analysts by saying it expected to report a record first-quarter profit despite setting aside $4.6 billion for potential loan losses.”

“a report from the Commerce Department said the U.S. trade deficit declined unexpectedly in February as exports rose.”

“But while unemployment may continue rising, President Obama’s top economic advisor, Lawrence H. Summers, said there was no longer “that sense of a free fall” in the economy.”

Are we out of the woods with the mess we’re in?

Not yet. We need to keep working to make a headline like this appear more often.

I do think that when we start seeing the light through the trees we need to embrace it and pass it on.

So pass on the good news and let’s keep working to bring our country back!
