Sometimes it amazes me how commercialized our society really is. Most of the time I don't really notice the theme of the commercials on television but then once in a while it hits me.
September is now here and school will be back in session within days. Back-to-school commercials started pumping through the TV set back in mid-July. Just as I was able to unwind and relax from the school year, I was bombarded with commercials reminding me how quickly the next year was approaching. No doubt that within a week or two, Christmas-themed ads will be flying at us. Christmas is more than three months away!! Guess I need to turn off the TV a little more often and maybe I can enjoy the present a little more instead of thinking about what is coming up.
