LEISURE IN LIFE
LEISURE IN LIFE
Dear all,

We are enjoying leisure in life due to modern techniques and technologies. Machines are in our daily routines for ease and comfort. From the kitchen to cleaning, from study to writing, from washing to shaving, everything is in easy mode and hassle-free. The office clerk is no longer calculating and arranging old ledgers and books, housewives are not grinding and washing by hand, and youngsters can enjoy all games in their houses.

Technology is meant to provide facilities in our lives, but we are slightly ignoring some precious practices. In my view, the following are some of our lapses.
- After having a well-equipped PC, our next generation is away from handwriting skills. Most kids are not interested in writing much except for school routines.
- Video games have captured everyone. Bedtime stories are rare in our lives; once, it was a beautiful and loving practice where children insisted on their parents for moral or fantasy-oriented stories before going to bed. Parents added bits of advice and moral values to educate their kids.
Social media stopped us from social gatherings; we are too much in it. We share each and every moment from day to night, so there is nothing left for when we get to meet individually. Our emotions are displayed through various emojis. We can observe people sharing the same table for lunch/dinner, and are busy texting their other friends silently. What kind of gathering is it where we are not sharing anything verbally and are sending our pictures and views through mobile to all those who are sitting beside us?
Social Media
- People have long left grinding, kneading, or mixing manually. In the past times, it was a good exercise for muscles. Machines are really necessary, but I suggest that, for the sake of knowing the origin, we should try manual work in our routine. Good if it's once a month.
- 24 hours of transmission is a barrier to outdoor activities; people generally love to spend their free time in front of T.V and do not like to go out. The family is much more important than fun time. We can skip one program and watch a repeat telecast.
- Video games and TV are making people addicted to living in the house. But outdoor activities are really necessary for good health and the growth of young ones.
I am not against modern technology, but I am in favor of distributing time among all activities. We should make a proper schedule for our daily routines. We should not give all of our spare time to one delight only. I cannot force anyone to act as I recommend, as all have their own priorities and living habits. I just want to suggest that we should not abandon all previous customs at once; keep them along with all new techniques. This is like a beautiful fusion.
Best regards.
