GFP Note: We are presenting this for your awareness.
As always, use your discernment.
It's okay to watch TV. In fact, watching programs like comedy can help you raise your vibration.
However, if you are "addicted" to watching television or are using it as an escape, that makes it a distraction that keeps you from Being the Love that you are.
Television is also a tool that The Powers That Were used to influence Humanity and even control our minds. If you are reacting to what you see on TV emotionally or feel it is affecting your state of Being, then yes ~ you should walk away from it.
Humanity has two choices in every moment ~ Love or fear. Fear is an illusion. Love is Real. We choose Love.
