I am so glad...
that even my children refuse to watch TV! Maybe even they can tell that they are not getting anything out of it..

Re: This is so true my dear Lion
And while it does that it feeds us compulsions to buy and highly distorted tales of far away

Re: Yellowrose55
Thank you!  I have lived without one for almost two years now - it's amazing how much more time you have and how much less junk you buy

This is so true my dear Lion
the TV is our worst enemy and has become a substitute for conversation in so many homes; I never switch it on any more except to watch a video or put me to sleep!!! Many blessings and thanks

I do not watch TV for the infiltration of my mind is what I choose to instill . Excellent vision of the deadend of television. Kudos!

Excellent poem Lionreign. Honestly, I battle myself to stay away from that(news) box. Your so right, it leaves a person empty. Okay.......... unless it's educational, or a fun game show.
