Influence

#8.

                 Nowadays, presence of media in our lives is so influencing. It can make our lives happy, merry, and colorful. On the other hand, influence of media can also ruin our lives, may cause bad things to us and can absolutely lead us on doing things which is not suppose to be engage with. Because of this bad influences, our lives turns to be miserable and horrible.

                 There are many forms of media which are visible in our society. One of the most common form is the television. Watching T.V. during leisure times is very useful especially when you are bored. It can drove away our boredom and entertain us. This can also give us lessons, inspirations and some information to us through different kinds of show. All and all, presence of television in our houses is very important. But on the other side, despite of the good benefits that T.V. contributed in our daily lives, there is always a bad side of it.

                  Some of the examples of  T.V. shows that may contain bad influence to the viewers is the "Katorse" and the latest "Anghelito, ang batang ama". Not against to the network where these shows belong but there are things I noticed. One thing I observed is these shows may inspire the viewers not to engaged in premarital sex because these shows the effect which is not good. But then, try to think, even though these shows trying to convince spectators especially teenagers not to hurry in engaging premarital sex but in the end the story would end up in circumstances which is then the problem is resolve and the cast will be satisfy of the life they had. So , instead of convincing the viewers not to hurry in choosing a partner in life, they would think that It is alright because at the end of the story, they will be satisfy and go on in their lives as they saw in the show. Therefore, instead the population of the teenagers who are involve in premarital sex is lessen, it might worsen the case. Other cause of the influence of T.V are the commercials and others.

                   Media is maybe helpful in our generation. There are many things that can change our lives that media may bring. It will help in our success and dreams in lives. But then always bear in our mind that whatever goodnesss media may bring, if it is abuse and not control, it can destroy our our lives and especially ourselves.
