For so long I have seen the doom and gloom. The negative reports and rants of those that always see the darkness. It's not that it isn't out there, it's just that most of what is there is reflected in us and by us. It's like living in a hall of mirrors and we all have a choice. Reflect what we know is good and light, or reflect what we believe to be evil and dark. We complain about the darkness in the media, well, there is lightness as well. I think Yoda said it very well and it bears repeating.
"Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering."
"When you look at the dark side, careful you must be ... for the dark side looks back."
"Careful you must be when sensing the future. The fear of loss is a path to the dark side. Train yourself to let go of everything you fear to lose."
"Yes, a Jedi's strength flows from the Force. But beware of the dark side. Anger, fear, aggression; the dark side are they. Easily they flow, quick to join you in a fight. If once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will."
