my day starts by going out for jogging and then come home and read the newspaper while having tea im habituated to this morning ritual of mine i do not meditate or do yoga but instead i go jogging and swimming earlier i did like going to the gym but for sometime now i have been going for jogging at a park near my home i like going there because they have an open gymlike area where they have weights i do this five days a week for an hour at least i really like going there because i can workout in the open where there is plenty of fresh air and i can hear the birds singing there is no loud music and bumping into sweaty people i like watching movies but i enjoy reading a book better than watching a movie and thats because when im reading a book my imagination comes alive picturing the different people places and events whereas when im watching a movie im already presented with someone elses visual imagination i regularly read especially fiction and latinamerican authors lately im reading a lot of salman rushdie and thoroughly enjoy iti love cooking and find it very therapeutic i like experimenting with different cuisines and love cooking for my friends i believe in spending quality time with family and friends rather than partying out but when im abroad i party out a lot because i love to dancethe kind of life that we all live today is very taxing and hectic theres so much to do in such little time that leaves us mentally and physically tired therefore each one of us needs to indulge in activities to relax our body and mind i recommend exercising and inculcating hobbies also switching of your mobile phone while working out is importantfollow us on twitter for more stories
