Going Back To Magic Of Books

We are getting fantastic response from our visitors who are buying Cialis online and enjoying reading these small snippets. It is good to know that you all are finding it interesting and keeps your grey cells tickling. Of course you keep reading about the normal stuff about climate change, politics and terrorism etc all the time on newspaper and watch the same things on TV. When you meet friends your time is spent in catching up with one another and talking about Cialis or about politics. It is quite likely that you have forgotten to read.

By reading we mean reading novels and books. When was it that you picked up a copy of Reader’s Digest and spent a few hours reading through the articles?. These must have been your favourite magazine earlier for each of the stories is very inspiring and gripping. Should we say that with the TV coming into our lives our reading habits have taken a beating? It is true.

It was not only about reading any book but something more than that. The experience of looking forward to going to the library or spending your pocket money in buying second hand Archie digests and other magazines, reading in darkness using flash light to avoid being caught with parents, reading stories in place of studies during exam time are all some of the most precious things that we seem to have lost out on.

Spending time in the library meant exploring a whole new world. Going through different books on different subjects and picking up few which caught your fancy was magical. Each book had a different story to tell. Some of the books made you feel averse while some books had the magic making you want to pick them up immediately. Over a period of time you built a intimate connection with the books. Now all this has changed. With TV we have stopped thinking and reading. Unlike in books where we use our thinking to look for the books that we want to read, TV makes us dumb and stops us from thinking. We simply become couch potatoes watching whatever that the TV dishes out for us.

The other thing about the TV and your mind which you may not have noticed is that the TV drives your emotional and status of the mind. The presentations are made in frenzy with high pitched voice and tones to make it exciting for the viewers, with the result that the frenzy clutters your mind. End of it you feel agitated and the noise too gets to your head. You do not feel calm and collected but feel distracted with the noise box.
We generally tend to look at some of the news and go into a thinking mode. It is quite natural habit of the mind to start imagining and expanding further on the scene that has been imprinted on the mind. Therefore often we end up thinking about politics, about violence, financial markets or some such subject which excites our mind and senses. All the thinking activity that goes on as a result of the mindless watching is of no use. It creates more pressure in us than helps us calm down.

So one needs to be watchful of what he is watching on TV. If you are clear about what you are looking for then you are safe. Do not use TV as a ongoing chatter box in your living room. Use it for the purpose of entertainment and news and limit it to the specific purposes only. Watching a football match with your family can be relaxing and exciting. A good movie can be entertaining too. If you want to watch the news, stick to it and after it is over switch it off and pick up a book instead.

We hope you will give more thought to this and make some changes in your TV schedule as well as pick up on reading habit. Next time you visit us to buy Cialis online, do share with us the changes that you have made and the impact so that others too are encouraged to change their habits too.
