Mirror of Personality

Tell me what you do when you're FREE - free to choose anything you desire to do - and then, if you are totally honest with me, I will tell you what kind of person you really are!

As a mirror for reflecting our personality, leisure is unsurpassed. What we do in our working lives is only a part of us, and not always the most important part. If we depend upon our work alone to reflect and develop our personalities, we realize only a portion of our potential. We cannot over-emphasize the importance of wholeness in our lives - the relationship between the individual organism and its environment, among the parts within and the things outside of us. It may be difficult to assess the extent to which leisure serves as a shaper of personality, but its influence must be considerable.
