Well the Winter Olympics are about to kick off in Russia and the news will be full of the Sport Victories and Political Controversy for the next 2 weeks. I thought the much of the positive news would be coming from there (an honest mistake), but now it seems that there is plenty of news that risks being overshadowed. The biggest one for me, especially since the outbreak in Wales last year, is that massive reduction in measles deaths around the world. So a big plus there for vaccinations and modern medicine. 😀

Why not let me know what your favourite positive story of the day is?
