Having spent a bit of time over the past week, flipping TV channels, looking for some mentally uplifting programs from which I could learn something new, I was again overwhelmed with the amount of TV gossip we are exposed to. We are definitely enveloped in a world where TV and other media are obsessed with personal scandal.
Okay, I have to confess that I parked myself in front of these programs, too.
The New Year has begun, and yes, some of us even made a few resolutions. Well, maybe we were coaxed to do it. Maybe some of our friends have been waiting all year to use the excuse of the resolutions to ‘suggest’ it is time for some of us to ‘get more active’, for example?
Is it an automatic response to the year end, to publicly agree to follow the advice of those friends? Maybe it is about agreeing in order to ‘look good’ or be a good citizen? I can recognize a bit of that! Mostly, they give me the appearance that I am resolute in my resolutions!
