Books VS Television

 


Books VS Televisions


Round 1 - Book

I improve your grammar, I do you good,

I have info - lessons too.

I help you imagine - lots and lots,

I help you dream and design thoughts. 


Round 2 - Television

I stop the bore from getting to you,

Affecting your eyes is the duty I do.

I have all the happiness you can get,

But never listen to book, he's boring, yet.


The competition is over, but the 2 are still fighting. Can you help me decide who is better and safer?


Enter your answers in the comments, but be fair. If you vote for one, give the reason for why you vote, if you want the quarrel between the two to end. 



The results will be revealed to you on Saturday - 5/3/2022.


You have plenty of time to decide!


(Think about what television and book means. Are they talking good, or bad?)

    Books are treasure house of knowledge. No doubt, TV has a far reaching result and influence our mind. A picture description will impress than reading a para. But what is good whether reading books or watching TV? That's the question. My vote is for reading books. You read same Mahabharata or Srimad Ramayana several times. Each time you read these books, it convey different meaning. It all depends upon the the frame of mind and your attitude and approach towards Books or TV. Perhaps, e books have now in place and are available to all we have to read books through system computer only. Then how to balance these
    things? Something we have to ponder over this issue. But my vote is for books either through virtual reading or e reading.

    Valuable question it made me to think twice before voting. Yes reading books or watching TV both requires good vision. Reading we say hobby but watching TV we say entertainment. When you read with concentration it reminds in our mind permanently. Good news when you hear along with vedios in TV you can easily understand especially science channel
    For Children.we can know day to day happiness around the world through TV. When you use the TV apart from Entertainment in right way it gives you more knowledge.inbTamil there is a saying கற்றலின் கைட்டலே நன்று. My vote is for both TV and Book as both when used correctly properly it shapes the mind of the user.

Long Lost Sleep

  After a long, exhausting day, the only thing all of us look forward to is SLEEP. So, as soon as you finish off the last crumbs on your dinner plate, you fling yourself onto your bed, rest yourself in a comfortable position, get your pillow nice and fluffed up, and throw the blankets on yourself. But then... You just realised that you still have your big, wobbly earrings on. So you throw back the blankets and remove your earrings and leave them in their box. And then you're back in your bed, and just as your eyelids are about to close... You realise that you haven't brushed your teeth. So, yet again, your throw back the blankets and get off the bed, letting the annoying, creaky sound fill your head. And then you throw open the door to your bathroom, get your brush ready and squeeze toothpaste onto it, but... The tube seemed to have a hole on the back, which you sadly hadn't noticed. And you get toothpaste all over your hands. Fuming, you wash your hands and get things done...

So Close, Yet So Far

  What you knew you had right beside you What you never knew might leave you What you had neglected for days What you wished was still there, within your gaze. That miniscule amount of hope  That you feel lingering close by You could open out your arms, embrace it, But suddenly it's high in the sky. Once within your grasp, But now away from you, Don't waste a moment on a wee gasp, Time won't stop, and the moving hope too. Each moment is to be caught, Each memory to be cherished, Hold them carefully in your arms, Before they shall vanish. The consistent inkling when you feel, Something close, yet so far, Is only because you know yourself, That it is within your grasp, but not within your confidence. If you're positive enough that you can hold it, The 'it' that is mysterious and something only you know, You can hold the precious 'it', Clutch it tight, don't let it go. You must be close to the end of the day, With its cliffs and slopes and Rocky slides,...

Stars

  Shining in the vast night sky, I see them from afar. Dominated by the brighter moon, There glimmer the stars. Mostly hidden by the cruel shadows, Or by the thick, misty clouds. But they do not give up, they still glimmer on, They make their voice be heard loud. Even though they're hardly seen, Even though they're hardly thought of, They know that someday they will be, Thought of, honoured and loved. So take an inspiration from stars, Show your true essence, Continue to shimmer, ignore the darkness, Because one day it'll fear your presence.
