Welcome yo House of Hope Radio! This week my Dear Friend Dr. Jim Denison wrote a column on the world being such an unhappy place: The world is more unhappy than it has been in a decade. Gallup’s Negative Experience Index found that markers for worry, stress, sadness, and physical pain are all at record highs. The Index stood at 24 in 2008, as the Great Recession was beginning, and stayed at that level for the next three years. Remarkably, unhappiness began to rise in 2012, a time when many economies were recovering. Since that time, most global markets have risen dramatically. But so has unhappiness, to an unprecedented level of 30 in 2017.
