AGE of ENTERTAINMENT
We were conceived long, long ago.
The reason why we do not know.
Through Stone and Bronze and Iron we aged.
Against an Age of Darkness raged.
A Middle Age led us to fight
In order to turn on the 'Light'.
Then next we looked to Industry
And God we thought, "How wise are we".
But life not right left us intent
On a New Age Enlightenment.
New 'light' though simply let us 'see'
A 'darkness' that will always be.
The Information Age we spawned;
The Age of the Confused then dawned.
And now with everything to lose
The Entertainment Age we choose.
It's sad to think on this birth 'day'
"Let's party on" is all we say.

I think that you make a strong point. I believe I feel the same way in a lot of ways, but in others I think it is important for someone who feels the same as you (or us) is to show ration in the things we do and what we commit ourselves to. We have to realize that we are only a single person in some ways, but we also have to consider that the Western Civilized World is only a minority of life in the world. Without making any commitment to help others, one would easily fall into the temptations of this world. But there are positive ways to try to do more. Many of us fall into the cliche "how can I help someone else when I can't even help myself". I think that this could be a good focus for Western Civilization advancing the way we look at entertainment per say, and caring for others but also protecting ourselves.
it sad to know all the disiplint in life.....couldn't you imagine? this blowed me away.. would it happen to you? you do make a powerful point and i think that we need to protect ourselves a little bit more in life. now i know that Entertainment is really important as you all know. now i do and hope that we should help each other out , as to ourselves!!!!!!
It's all right when we help each other out in life. If we see that this world is full of Entertainment we do need to see that it is important, as air is needed in a balloon. Do you get what i'm saying?
Not really. Doug.E.Barr
you have to remember with out bad things in life how would we realise the good things in life , and the entertainment that you speak off it is a means to an end ,an end of boredom ,

Indeed, if I didn't receive the occasional boneheaded comment, how could I possibly recognize a thoughtful one? Doug.E.Barr
