Trying to think freely

So I'm turning off my TV (the zombie tube) and I'm reading more, because there's way too much rubbish on TV and I can spend my time much better than being mindlessly 'entertained' by some terrible programming that was decided by some media mogul who's fattening his pocket at my expense.

I'm trying to think for myself and un-learn and re-learn everything that I ever was taught and it is hard.

I'm starting to wonder more and more if what I'm doing is my own thoughts or what was programmed into me. I'm almost about ready to become unplugged. It's scary but it's totally worth it.
