Television Programs and Real Life

Gypsy Rose Lee I look back at all the time I spent watching t.v. and wonder if I could have used my time more wisely. Then I also remember enjoying all the laughs and humor that made every day a little more fun. I still watch a little t.v. and cherish all my good memories. It is very important to experience different joys in life so we can experience different feelings and emotions. It makes us a better more rounded person. Now I try to read and write more. Everyone has their different loves. For some people it is cooking,painting or knitting. Other people spend their time minding children or grandchildren. There are so many pleasures. Thank you for reading and sharing. I hope today is wonderful for you.

Dora Weithers As I grow older I have less and less desire for t.v. I thought it would be the opposite. Because as I watched as many older adults became elderly. They were physically less active and couldn't do the things they once loved and filled that void with t.v. I vowed to myself not to make the same mistake. Not that t.v. can't be good but I think I can come up with something that is so much better. To make people want to exercise and participate more. Lets face it when most people watch t.v. they become less active and more lethagic. That is not a good thing. They can escape life with life on t.v. which is not always a good representation of the life that we live. it can be biased and one sided. Watching just the news can make you very judgemental. People decide what they want to do and who are we to judge them. Some people watch Judge Judy and talk shows like Ellen. There are so many choices. Sports channels constantly. The history channel which can be interesting. Like so many other things in life even the best things become boring. If there is no one to share the fun and excitement with. Then sometimes your sight goes and you have a tough time even seeing the t.v. People get hard of hearing so the t.v. gets turned up real loud. The thing that we found great joy together as a family sitting around the t.v. later replaced real people. Sad but true. People get all busy and forget the ones they love. T.v. becomes like a ompanion. The difference is you have no real interaction. It is only one way. That could change if we thought outside the box. Taking t.v. to a whole new level. More on that later if you are interested. Thank you so much for reading and caring. Happy Friday.

Bill Holland There are so many children that watch t.v. every day. What they see and what they think develops into who they will become. I hope writers help create a good message in their writings to help children push to their innermost potential and steer away from the problems that have plagued generations. Using humor and talent to create something special that can be admired for many years after. Thank you for reading and commenting. I always appreciate different views even if they oppose my train of thought. So I can learn and expand my own comfort zone. We are having rain today. I hope your weather is bright and sunny.

Louise Powles I feel the same way about t.v. I had more time when I was younger and didn't have so much responsibility. Now busy with work when I have the time I would rather read and write. Thank you for being the first person to comment. It means so much to me when other people relate to what I am thinking. Sometimes I think a thought that is way out there. Even my wife won't touch with a ten- foot pole. I still feel I want to do my best to explain my thinking process. Have a fantastic day.
