How do people enjoy pastime?
Leisure plays a very significant role in the life of a
man. During leisure a man does not generally do any income generating work. But
leisure does never mean idleness. Leisure suggests a period when a man is not
bound to do any scheduled job. In a leisure period a man can do some
interesting things. Some people enjoy hearing music. There are some other
people who enjoy gardening or reading books. Actually leisure is very
stimulating for creativity. A man can easily flourish his creativity by doing
some interesting things in his leisure time. Actually leisure provides a man
with ample scope to have the refreshment of mind and achieve the sanity. It
gives a man enthusiasm for further work. In many developed countries leisure
activities are given special importance. In Germany there is a German Leisure
Association. In Bangladesh the rural people enjoy gossipping during their
leisure time. But in the busy cities people pass their leisure by watching
television. However, leisure is a part and parcel of our daily life. So it
should be used properly.
