Reality TV, not only is it addictive, but it is time consuming. Speaking for myself, I know it brings my brain to a complete level of numbness. I understand that Reality TV originated due to the actors strike, but the strike is long and gone. I won’t lie; I am known to catch a few shows as a guilty pleasure. However, after I have indulged myself, I realize I just wasted 1 -2 hours of my life, and my mind became complete mush.
I know there is a lot of young, raw talent waiting to use their creative minds, let’s not hold them back. Creativity seems to have gotten lost. Let’s encourage the young to use their minds and creativity. Keep it real, not Reality TV; show them what they are capable of.
With that being said, here is my personal thought on a particular reality television show I recently had a chance to view. “T.I. Road to Redemption” is by far one of the better reality television shows out today.
Whether people believe it’s a “PR hype” or a way for him to get out of jail time, who really cares? He seems to be making a change in some of these young peoples’ lives. Isn’t that something to live for and appreciate? Someone is taking the time to educate young people of tomorrow; helping save some misdirected youths. I myself would love the opportunity to make a difference in even just one person’s life.
Is it so hard for us to be selfless or self-involved? I challenge every one of you to make a conscious effort and take the time to try and put a smile, a sparkle of hope into someone’s life; someone who has already given up on themselves. Believe me, I understand it is not an easy task, but if everybody commits to this challenge, add it up, we can change the world, one person at a time! Make it a better place for our children, grandchildren and so on.
Key rule to remember, which we have all heard many times in our lives: Lead by example.
