Messiah Of Awareness

Television is one of those prodigies of modern science which has revolutionizedthe life of every man, woman and child around the globe. The closeassociation of viewers with TV programmes is moulding and shaping theirlives in a thousand different ways. This medium of mass entertainment hasan iron grip on the imagination as well as thinking faculties. Viewing television saves time; money and the bother of travelling to far off places in search ofobjects that arouse one’s curiosity. Sitting comfortably in his home in anarmchair one can watch the performance of any man, bird or any other creature on land, in air or in water.

It is indeed a matter of great regret that this “messiah of awareness” is sometimes labeled as the "idiot box". Studies have indicated that television increasesthe general vocabulary and helps to broaden views. And yes, the imagesprovided by the television do not have a stubborn impression on our minds-they in fact serve as an incentive - to increase our imagination. It goes without saying that the impact of audio visual memory is everlasting.

Again, it is a subject of immense compunction that the television is also accused of producing “couch potatoes”- but it is not the television that forces any individual to sit in front of it for hours - it is the individual's own mind that does so. The role of television in modern society is a very crucial one - being a medium of education and entertainment.

Checking Before Doing!!!!

Yeah, we should always check the things we're gonna do before doing them!!!!!
Believe me, I've had a little tiring experience of this saying.
Check out my experience-

I was leaving Mumbai by a train to reach Kota. My uncle who always checked things, somehow forgot to check the station. According to him the train surely left from Dadar, a station in Mumbai, but in reality the train was not going to stop at Dadar. I checked it out and was left in a situation in which one cannot think of anything. But my uncle because of his experience of living in the crowdy place (Mumbai) knew that it was not just a tough but an impossible job to reach Borivali (another station of Mumbai) on time by a car. So he quicly unloaded the car and straightly took us to the platform from where the local trains left. Fortunately or unfortunately, the first train was for Borivali, but it was so crowdy that we were not able to get into it. The next train was for Virar which passed from Borivali. With the success being ours, we entered the train but the people in it, being helpful, told us that we would not get a chance to get out of it. So we quickly took our luggage and jumped out of the train. Then atlast a train for Borivali came and we got ourselves in it. With so much luggage with us, people started staring at us, because usually no one carry so much luggage in a local with him. We told them our story and they started encouraging us. Finally we reached Borivali with just three minutes to spare. At the end I reached Kota quite peacefully but this experience was surely a teachin' one!!!!

So my friends, please dont take anything for granted and be wise enough to check out the information first.
