Cartoon addiction...

At present moment, watching cartoons has become very popular among people of all ages as an entertaining media which easily refreshes anyone’s mind. From cartoons we can learn many things, as well as it gives us pleasure. There is nothing wrong to watch cartoons, but there should be a time limit, like one to two hours daily to watch it. When we cross this limit and start watching cartoons for a long time in each day, it becomes an addiction—an addiction that affects our lives badly. Therefore, according to my point of view, at present, cartoon addiction is becoming a social issue.

I think one of the reasons to become addicted to cartoons is attraction. From my personal experience I am saying so. I have a cousin, who is nearly one year old and love watching cartoons. Obviously, he does not understand anything about cartoons, but he is attracted by the sound and various color of cartoons. Now what happened is he wanted to watch cartoons all the time –morning, evening and night. If we change the channel, he starts crying. Not only this, if we do not allow him to watch, he refuses to take lunch or dinner, even though he is hungry. Before being addicted with cartoons he used to be jolly and loved spending time with us, but now he prefers to watch cartoons! At this age he is behaving like this, who knows what will happen in future? Also, question may arise that how he became addicted, but the answer is we do not know because none of my uncle, aunt or grandmother watches cartoons. However, we watch television in front of him. Thus, we are assuming that while we are watching we change the channels, and maybe from there somehow cartoons caught his attention. At this moment, my uncle and aunt’s main goal is to drive him into correct path. I believe, it is the same image of many houses all over the world.

This is only one example, but I know many other kids who are addicted to cartoons like my cousin. For that reason, it is a social issue to me. To keep it in my mind, I would like to say that this is just the beginning of my experiences. Soon, I will come with my other experiences and my friends’ thoughts and opinions regarding this issue.

Love... Is Painful

“The pain associated with relationships has more to do with fear, than love.”

Who hasn't experienced the pain of love? Or is it the pain of rejection? The pain of self doubt? The pain of fear? It's important to distinguish between love and totally separate feelings.

When it comes to pain surrounding love, we're more likely referring to the “add-ons” of love. The love baggage, we might call it. For some reason, many people assume negative emotions are a part or element of love. But experientially we know this isn't true.

Love is not painful, it feels incredible. The pain and hurt we feel doesn’t come from love, it comes from our doubts, fears, anxiety, perceived rejections, broken trusts, anger, jealousy, envy, etc. So why do we as a culture lump all those other feelings in with love?

Perhaps its because we feel these uncomfortable emotions most often in association with our love relationships. Our primary relationships are important to us, so we assume these doubts and fears are all part of the loving experience. But is this really true?

When we are fearful, angry, anxious, unhappy, or jealous, are we truly experiencing a state of love? They sure feel different, don't they? Love feels warm, open, joyous and filled with a deep sense of appreciation. Pain steps into a love relationship when you switch it from a "wanted relationship," into a "needed relationship." You don't NEED any one relationship. Want? Yes. Need? No.

If you go into a relationship not feeling terribly good about yourself, you're more likely to become dependent on your partner to help you feel good about yourself. If we felt empty before they appeared in our lives, we fear the emptiness returning if they leave, so their staying with us becomes paramount. That dependency can create all kinds of fear and unhappiness when there's a perceived threat to you staying together.

If we aren’t giving ourselves the acceptance we crave, we look to those around us to provide it for us. Again, none of this has a thing to do with the love you feel, but everything to do with the fear you feel.

If you really want to remove the love baggage of fear and unhappiness, the first step is to improve your self awareness and self acceptance.

Stresss.....

What Is Stress?

Stress is a feeling that's created when we react to particular events. It's the body's way of rising to a challenge and preparing to meet a tough situation with focus, strength, stamina, and heightened alertness.

The events that provoke stress are called stressors, and they cover a whole range of situations — everything from outright physical danger to making a class presentation or taking a semester's worth of your toughest subject.

The human body responds to stressors by activating the nervous system and specific hormones. The hypothalamus signals the adrenal glands to produce more of the hormones adrenaline and cortisol and release them into the bloodstream. These hormones speed up heart rate, breathing rate, blood pressure, and metabolism. Blood vessels open wider to let more blood flow to large muscle groups, putting our muscles on alert. Pupils dilate to improve vision. The liver releases some of its stored glucose to increase the body's energy. And sweat is produced to cool the body. All of these physical changes prepare a person to react quickly and effectively to handle the pressure of the moment.

This natural reaction is known as the stress response. Working properly, the body's stress response enhances a person's ability to perform well under pressure. But the stress response can also cause problems when it overreacts or fails to turn off and reset itself properly.

Good Stress and Bad Stress

The stress response (also called the fight or flight response) is critical during emergency situations, such as when a driver has to slam on the brakes to avoid an accident. It can also be activated in a milder form at a time when the pressure's on but there's no actual danger — like stepping up to take the foul shot that could win the game, getting ready to go to a big dance, or sitting down for a final exam. A little of this stress can help keep you on your toes, ready to rise to a challenge. And the nervous system quickly returns to its normal state, standing by to respond again when needed.

But stress doesn't always happen in response to things that are immediate or that are over quickly. Ongoing or long-term events, like coping with a divorce or moving to a new neighborhood or school, can cause stress, too.

Long-term stressful situations can produce a lasting, low-level stress that's hard on people. The nervous system senses continued pressure and may remain slightly activated and continue to pump out extra stress hormones over an extended period. This can wear out the body's reserves, leave a person feeling depleted or overwhelmed, weaken the body's immune system, and cause other problems.
