What Gives Life Variety For Living The Way People Do
When we look at our lives and how we live them, what is the first thing that comes to mind? Is it what we do for work or how we spend time with family or how we relax at the end of a long day? Life is not all about work, sure we need to make money but relaxing is part of living too. So sure we might work throughout the week, but weekends are meant for relaxing and doing the hobbies we enjoy and spending time with friends and family. When we put the way we live our lives into the hobbies we enjoy, that is where the variety comes into play. The variety that comes into play, can be either, watching television, or making friendship bracelets while watching television or gardening while listening to music or working out while listening to music. Or cleaning up your house, and re-arranging things to give it a different look or re-folding your clothes to make them neater, or cleaning up your bookshelf to make it neater. Do the different hobbies you enjoy. When we do the hobbies you enjoy and change them up with the seasons how does that make you feel?
