Does anyone else feel hopeless seeing the state of the world? How to deal with it?

[SnowLava]

This is something that I have been thinking about and feeling lately. I don't mean this to be a political post or what should/should not happen. But the point is- bad things are happening. Wars, famine, dirty politics, climate change etc. Seeing and reading the news everyday - I just see so much negativity around. I know that the news mostly covers negative aspects to gain more viewership; yet these things feel hard to ignore. This, coupled with a recent passing away of a close family member of mine has kind of made me feel really pointless lately.

I am not writing this to 'rant' my frustration away. I realise that lately I have adopted what we would call a 'victim mindset' - constantly blaming the government, the country I was born in etc. And also feeling a deep sense of nihilism.

How do I change this? any change of perspective can help.
