Remember the times you feel restless, frustrated, tensed, stressed because of the hustle and bustle of daily life and then what calms you are a paintbrush in the hand, keys of the keyboard running back and forth. For some singing and symphony of music running down your body to make you feel relaxed, for some sitting in the corner with some asanas or meditation; for some writing down your feelings in black and white... the list is long. That one thing which brings smile to you is “hobby”. Many people think it to be a distraction from achieving your academic targets while for me personally it is a must to cope with the stressful life and hectic schedules. I feel happy, stay motivated, normally vent out my anger and frustrations while I pursue my hobby. Personally, for me that happiness key is art and dance. I feel it is not only important but also essential for one to inculcate a hobby or hobbies in one’s life. It gives you the reason to feel happy about yourself and accomplished with some of your ME time…
