There is nothing wrong with watching Television

Years ago i used to love watching Television but for some reason i can't watch it anymore. I had a lot of fun watching it in the past and i didn't see anything wrong with watching it. It also helped me improve my English. Television also brings people together. Imagine when it is really cold and you can't go outside, what are you going to do to entertain yourself inside your home? I also ask myself sometimes how people lived in the past before the Television was invented. If you love to watch Television continue watching it because there is nothing wrong with watching it. I don't watch it because i don't feel like it but i wish i could watch it again. I do watch new episodes of The Simpsons, Family Guy and American Dad online. Many people on the internet write negative things about the Television. Don't they watch news reports? What if a storm comes and you are not prepared for it because you decided not to watch tv?

Evil

"Evil succeeds when you do nothing." Mr. Philbrick

Forest


One day while walking in the forest with a group of brothers from the Sangha Buddha scooped up a handful of leaves, showed it to the brothers and said "this is what i've taught." Indicating that the trees around them Buddha said, "what you have to learn is every leaf on every tree in the forest."

Analyze

“Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.” Buddha

I Am Awake

A Brahman saw the Buddha resting under a tree in meditation. The Brahman was impressed with the Buddha's disposition and demeanor.
He asked, "Are you a god?"
"No, Brahman, I'm not a god."
"Are you an angel?"
"No", replied the Buddha.
"You must be a spirit then?"
"No, I'm not a spirit," said the Buddha.
"Then what are you?"
"I am awake."

There are people who don't know how to help themselves

I've learned that there are people who don't know how to help themselves or can't help themselves. When you see someone in need help them, help them rise up. Not just with money or material things. There are people who need someone to speak with. Instead of putting others down we have to find a way to help them.

Reach For Perfection

The more you reach for perfection the better you become. People say perfection does not exist but if you don't have a perfect record in this country you can't get a good job.
