End of pale glow

Finally I had enough stomach to end a long but unsatisfying relationship. There were never any deeper between us. It was merely question of a long habit. We had our moments in the mornings before I left to work and in the evenings when I came back.

The biggest problem eventually was lack of interaction. The communication was one-way only and I had to be the listening party. Very frustrating. I neither get opportunities to discuss on important issues nor suggest what we should talk about. I just started to be quiet, passive and finally purely catatonic with my partner.

So, after years living together, I decided to sell my television through online auction! I carried the silver coloured box to the new owner’s car. I did it smiling, which according to Gerald should be very bad sign for the buyer.

But, what a relief it was! Now I have had time to read, write, exercise and rest. Much better things to do than just passively lying on the couch. I’m really happy about the decision. My daily media consumption is now build up by morning daily, various news sites, afternoon daily, magazines and some favourite podcasts. The consumption of media has changed not just in my apartment but globally. It seems that TV faces significant challenges.

For me TV became obsolete. The pale glow of non-interactive box is gone from my living room.
