I know that I may come off as being an anti TV freak, but I feel like I've been competing w/ the box my whole life. Our minds are being bought and sold, and the truth of the matter is that the TV is worshiped much more than any God. The amount of time we spend in front of it, instead of w/ each other, is just sad.
There are plenty of valid reasons to watch TV news, entertainment, story telling, all of which use to be done by humans. We as people have taken the only thing that keeps us close, our past time, and given it to a superficial box. Where there was once conversation there is silence.
I have come to believe that our habitat has become an invisible hamster cage. The bars of fear, consumption, hate, and misdirection are put in place by our very own minds. I often pondered the mouse in the cage the one that would never stop running on the wheel. In a forever moving motion until he eventually lived no more. I was puzzled by the strange behavior and I often wondered why. It seemed so meaningless so pointless, but now I get it. The mouse took the only thing left that was free and expanded it. While his legs where moving his blood was pumping creating more ideas in his mind. He made a decision that all though his body is caged his mind is his own.
I choose to be the "crazy" mouse on the wheel. I choose to turn off my TV and turn on my mind. I choose to live my life instead of watching one. I choose to constantly remind my family the control the TV has on there lives. I choose to believe that the severed lines of communication will soon be mended the whole world over. As for me and my house we will choose to think freely.
