“I know it’s stylish to be cynical these days.” Working for an investment bank has made me more likely to pay attention to economic news, and I’ve always been tuned into politics and global events. As depressing as they may sometimes seem, I think sometimes we need a reminder:

It’s cheesy, but nevertheless it speaks truth you might need to hear:

Sometimes traffic lights are green,
Sometimes people keep their word
In spite of everything you’ve heard, it’s true that
Sometimes nice guys finish first,
Sometimes true love really lasts
Sometimes all the world can change
…

Sometimes the good live long,
Sometimes kindness reaches far
Sometimes you hear your favorite song
Right when you get in the car
You don’t have to move the sky
But you can chase the clouds away
You don’t have to change the world,
But you might do it anyway
