In today's culture, it is so easy to forget and if you cannot forget on your own, we have plenty of distractions. Like television with almost every household having either cable or satellite you can be brainwashed twenty-four hours a day. However, you have to go to work to pay for those two million channels of garbage so you pry your overweight posterior off the couch to get into your car. Never fear you got the radio in there to tell you what to do. Do not worry about your visual stimulation with all the signs and billboards sometimes we forget about where you were going in the first place. That is right work, but now you are hungry. That is OK you can stop at any fast-food joint on the way and take care of that. Finally, we have made our way thru the sea of advertising and get to work. Now we feel stressed out. No problem just call your doctor to get a prescription of that new drug you have heard about on the idiot box. After the workday is over you can go home, of course stop on the way for some more fast food and watch the television to see what else it tells you to do. For many people this is life and even after learning that this lifestyle is unhealthy, they will still never change. Popular culture is an addiction but there is hope. Look in your greasy hand, that is a remote control find the button marked off and push it. You will suffer some withdraw symptoms but that will pass. Find other things to do like walking or just staring out a window in a week or two you will feel better I promise.
