We talked about television and movies for our group conversation a couple days ago.  I think we were mostly positive about it, although, as with most topics, I do my best to drum up viewpoints from both sides.

I love language, whether the language be verbal, written, vibratory harmonics, visual or sensual.

The value of movies is that they give you the opportunity to enjoy your life in the moment, and some of them carry the potential to inspire you beyond the direct experience.  They can expand your imagination and therefore your world.  Information, history, science, philosophy, geography, culture, style and beliefs can all be expressed and understood through such magical media.

Television does the same, and in plenty of other ways as well.  You can learn about your world, see beauty, and take breaks from life's various stresses here and there.

Thank you to all of the imaginations, writers, directors, players, cinematographers and everyone else who makes these ideas become realities for us to hear and see.

And we all know that most movies thrive on music, so a thank you to all the musicians in the world.

In fact, thank you to every artist, hard worker, and smiling beholder of beauty everywhere
