It is much too easy to fall into a pattern of watching too much television, taking too many naps and isolating yourself from others if you feel your life has no direction or meaning. Go to the local library and begin a genealogy project or learn how to play a musical instrument. You are in charge of your own destiny.

This was the traditional way of having fun for families and friends for decades, before the advent of television. Get into books – buy your own books, borrow books from friends, join a library or join or start a book club. These offer music, poetry and comedy for the cost of a couple of drinks. Budget and Kid Friendly Fun.

Everywhere you look, television, billboards, the Internet, magazines, newspapers and radios try to tell us what we need to buy and consume in order to be happy. You go to the library to borrow books, so why not share the ones you buy with your friends? Modern society comes with a lot of “I need it’s”, doesn’t it? Happiness sell!
