Importance of Media Today

-




      Media plays a significant role in today’s world. It broad casts information as fast as possible as well as provides entertainment to massive audience. It comprises of television radio internet etc.
Media is one of the most influential aspects of our lives. Media can manipulate people’s attitude and opinion. Communication has become very easy today.

Media is a very power tool to influence the mind of anyone. So use Medias intelligently. It gives us lot of information but we must choose what to see or what to hear.
Communication is much easier cheaper and quicker now than in the past. Internet is one of the widely used media today. It keeps us up to date with events happening in the world, media helps in gaining knowledge.
Even if social Medias are considered as a necessity now a days, one must nit get addicted to it. We should not lose touch with the reality. If one gets addicted he becomes lazy and hesitate to do something productive. It leads to obesity and tiredness also to unhealthy food habits.
For a religious their prayer life may get affected and lack of concentration occurs. Chatting with strangers is also a risk now a days so the addiction to Medias like internet can be destructive.
 Drugs, alcohol are exposed as cool in Medias so if one develops the problem of addiction, life become and relay hard to cope with. It is like you are moving towards your own destruction.
Media has both positive and negative influences on religious. Social media has made lives easier but its negative influence still out weight the positive ones. So remember the famous saying “everything is good in moderation.”

Thank you

“Never forget O Brave One the best kind of existence is to exist for others” Saint kuriakose Elias Chavara was a social reformer. He is the first canonized catholic male saint of Indian origin. He was one of the founders and first prior general of the first religious congregation for men known as the Carmelites of Mary Immaculate and the founder of the Congregation of the Mother of Carmel a religious congregation for women. Though his excellence touched all field, today I would like to focus him as a social reformer. Alas! Till 20 th century kerala history ignored him. But today things are changing. History accepted him as a social reformer. That is why, his history and contributions are become the necessary part of various grade exams like IAS, PSC, etc. He hailed from a Syrian Catholic family. He played a major role in educating and uplifting the people of kerala. St. Kuriakose Elias had the conviction that only through education the social status of people can be impr...

St. Therese of Lisiex – Doctor of the Church “I fell that my mission is about to begin, my mission to make God loved as I love Him, to teach soul my life way” in the answer to the question “What is the little way you want to teach the souls?” Theresa said: “It is the way of spiritual childhood, the way of trust and absolute surrender.” The poet Ben Johnson beautifully wrote that “ I t is not growing like a tree In bulk doth make Man better be; Or standing long an oak, three hundred year, To fall a log at last, dry, bald, and sere: A lily of a day Is fairer far in May, Although it fall and die that night— It was the plant and flower of light.” What is the use of a long life, when it’s meaningless? What is the use if we live as long as Methuselah who lived for 969 years (Genesis 5: 27) and have no sweetness in life? Even if life is short we need to make it sweet. Jesus life was short, just 33 years, but he gave sweetness to others; St. Theresa’s life was short, just 24 years...
