Everyday is not complete without cartoons. Though I'm in my late 30's I still enjoy watching it. It may sound childish but watching cartoons serves as a stress reliever for me. My nephew introduced me to this free anime site, gogoanime.com, smorgasbord for the anime addict. I'm currently following Bleach, hard core action with a very original plot. Japanese cartoons or anime as they call it are quite unique & interesting, you can actually get hooked up once you start watching it. A lot of kids are so into it that everytime you go to an anime convention expect a huge crowd attending it. Here in Asia cosplay is often times featured in most conventions you'll actually be awed with the costumes the contestants are wearing. Most of the kids make their own costumes, just imagine the time, money & effort they spend for that. But just like what they said, they don't mind at all because they enjoy what they're doing. But I'm not limited to that, I also love watching Phineas & Ferb, Fairly Odd Parents, Spongebob Squarepants, just to name a few. The love for cartoons runs in our family, believe it or not my mom used to watch these with me, it's our bonding moment. The same goes with my other two siblings & their families. It's fun to share silly moments like this, you should see us all laughing together.
It's good to bring out the child in you once in a while. With all the stress going on in our lives, it sure helps to a have a good laugh. Remember the old saying Laughter is the Best medicine? Well this is actually true because it has a lot of health benefits like increased blood flow to the brain, it strengthens the immune system, lowers blood sugar, plus it's a natural stress reliever found to be effective in almost all situations. As adults, we are constantly bombarded with stressful situations & though we're equipped with logical thinking & objectivity, we find it hard once in a while to deal with these events. A lot of people use cartoons as a stress managemant technique, & it's relaxing once you see the humor & apply it to every aspects of life
Don't let age get in the way. If you feel stressed out, take a break, watch some cartoons & you'll see It will make a lot of difference.
