Not to be confused with blithe positive thinking, problems must be addressed while we also hold the vision of a better, brighter future. It's a paradox but our collective future depends on us continuing to pay attention and staying engaged. As we enter 2023, The Well News reaffirms its commitment to continue providing our readers and clickbait-weary Americans the factual and impartial approach to staying informed they crave. We look forward to what the year ahead holds for us all.
