A Life of Fun
Many people erroneously think that leisure is the art of doing
nothing, as if it were possible to do nothing. Well, perhaps,
physically we may be able to do nothing; however, in my opinion,
even to veggie out is to do something. On the other hand, other
people think that leisure is the art of being physically active;
one does play sports or games and that is it.
The concept of leisure has been greatly misunderstood, as it is
as encompassing as practically anything we do that makes feels
good. In a way, we could say that "Leisure is the art of felling
good or enjoying life."
When you think of it, you can't help but realize how immense the
topic is, for the ability to feel pleasure is practically
infinite as it is individual in nature. There is, of course, the
great issue of feeling pleasure by doing things that are
considered "questionable" as opposed to doing things that make
us plainly and unlimitedly use our capabilities to feel good in
a positive way.
So, we need to understand that leisure is the sum of activities
in which we engage in order to feel good. These activities can
be physical, intellectual, political, and social, to name a few.
Here are some examples:
Physical: sports, jogging, dancing, etc.
Intellectual: puzzles, reading,
etc.
Political: debates, meetings, etc.
Social: barbecues, card and board games, balls, etc.
There are many categories in which we could put all the existing
leisure activities (see another article). For now, let's think
of all the things that gives us pleasure, and therefore, are
leisure activities: how about telling jokes, knitting, going for
walks, playing with your dog, watching movies, playing Frisbee,
book-scrapping, photography, painting, listening to music,
chatting with a friend, fixing a car, gardening, mowing the lawn
(yes, some people enjoy this!), and even working?
Who said: find a job you love and you will never have to work
again?
Now, do we need to know all the categories pertaining to
Leisure? Of course, not, just enjoy your life and you will be
living a "Life of Fun."
