    The joy of online television viewing is that you don’t have to wait until next week to see what happens.  You can watch as many episodes as you like, back to back, because you have control.

    This is a useful […]

    • A regular problem what television viewers would be facing has been neatly covered in the topic as to how things can be planned in a better way for the best result in getting entertained by the medium and not to become a slave of the medium. Many of the programs which we view would be disturbed due to different reasons and we cannot start at right place again immediately. My view to this is I like to watch program’s which are of one serial and less than one hour duration as we do not have to worry about the subsequent ones . We can always view them if we get time or else we can skip them. But for people who view serials regularly the above tips are very useful. An interesting writing covering many aspects of television and entertainment industry.

      • Thank you. Also, I find that when I watch at my own pace; when I can see two episodes back to back or watch an epi every day, I am far more critical.

    kaylar wrote a new post, Marrying Against the Wishes of Your Parents 7 years, 11 months ago

    When you decide to turn your back on your parent’s desires and marry someone they do not approve of, this often leads to the end of the family.

    In some places, one will be ‘disowned’.    In some places, one w […]

    • The problem comes when a person chooses someone the Parents don’t like. If you were to fall in love and pick someone yet your parents liked and approved of, well that is one thing. But if they don’t like the person and refuse to accept the marriage… that is a world of problems.

    • This is a big problem in many families and I personally have come across where parents have treated the son or the daughter who has so married to be no more in their life. It is a sad reality. I feel bad for both but more so for the parents because in one stroke the trust which parents place on the children is broken. One should understand that marriages are made with families and not individuals. But since the times have changed elders should also learn to accept the ground realities. And the children should also not end up troubling their parents for their own reasons. Child parent relationship are a case of mutual trust and this trust should not be broken. The most important thing is that children should not do something which will upset the parents mind. While there are many happy endings once a grandson or a granddaughter is born. In a lot of other cases the exact opposite happens and the girl or the boy ends being thrown out of the family and the relationship with the parents. These are all sensitive issue and should not be trampled upon. Elders should also forgive them and leave them alone no doubt that pain keeps lingering on till death. A thought provoking article well written.

      • We share the same sentiments. To be thrown out of the family is hard on everyone and very often there is no reconciliation. The relationship may not last and the parents move on, the child has to recreate a life for there is no home to go to.

    Politicians are interested in being elected. Once elected, holding power. Politicians seek to hold power as long as they possibly can.

    That is because all they want is power. They don’t care about the people, […]

    • The reality is that only the worst people go into politics. They are interested in power. They pursue power, they will do and say anything to get it. They will stand on a platform and promise then get into power and starts filling their pockets and bellies.

    • I totally agree with your arguments and think you should add that they also want a nice pay (money). I’m from Belgium (EU) and the only thing i see our politicians do is working against each other or the community to get power or money. The socialist who should stand for the people are always involved in scandals.

      • politicians say/promise what they think you want to hear. What they intend is to get into office, get as much money as they can, as you rightly said, and then coast for as long as they can hold office.
