If I am right here, we all have that one thing that we fall back to and makes us feel like a human again and breathe after we might have stressed ourselves through the week, most especially in this country. And personally for me, I do not involve myself in doing big things when it comes to my leisure; I just engage myself in something so small that makes everything come to life again.
One of the things I do is to engage myself in writing because it makes me think more and gives me calm, just like showering after sweating, especially in this hot weather that we are in at the moment. What I do is that I open my notepad, sit comfortably on a chair, and let out my thoughts slowly until I am done.
And sometimes, I engaged myself in an evening walk; this was not often. Some people swim, but I am still running away from that because of my first experience. But I love to take a stroll on dry ground and smell those aromas from those roadside foods, and I love to watch children play around too.
But during most of my leisure time, I am always indoors because I love that a lot, and I listen to my favorite music from my Spotify playlist. Sometimes I watch movies too, and I love eating while watching because I tend to concentrate more when I do that, and it puts my mind to rest.
In my country, almost everything is like war; me engaging myself in one or two hobbies reminds me that I am still breathing and that I am human too. It is a means of survival because when I engaged myself in it, it was not a luxury. And those moments of inner peace are so lovely.
Thank you for reading.
