A Challenge...

"Being more politically active, or watching ‘The West Wing?’ Helping your kid with his homework or taking a guess at ‘Final Jeopardy?’ Spending the evening with your family, or yelling at them because they're blocking your view of ‘The Family Guy?’ Every one of us should ask these questions to ourselves when we want to pick up the remote, turn on the television, and turn off our brains. While the T.V. might offer a momentary escape from the real world, the real world still goes on whether we like it or not. While marriages fall apart, while children are neglected, while heinous crimes are committed, the nation still has time to tune into ‘American Idol.’ Don’t we have ANYTHING better to do?"

Now that's something to think about. I challenge everyone who reads this to go a week without watching television. Instead, go on a walk. Look at the stars. Take in the beauty that's allready all around us. Go camping! Enjoy!
