Refresh Yourself !

GETTING AWAY from the pressures of the job to play golf or tennis, to go fishing, or to do a favorite hobby, is not a deviation nor a departure from a main purpose in life. Actually, it is a refreshing experience that will help you better achieve your main purpose.

Work is necessary it seems. Meaningful employment - and even fatigue - is good. Having a career that is enjoyable is wonderful. But, all of us need to get away from the obligations and pressures of responsibility by the refreshment of body, mind, and spirit.

Sustained tension on a rubber band will eventually break it. The rubber band will expand and perform its work, then when the pressure is removed, it can once again be stretched to "hold on" to its responsibilities. The same thing is true of people.

All of us need to get away from main tasks for re-creative activity. Recreation, whatever its form, like a clean wind, can sweep the cobwebs from our minds. It can help us return to our usual functions much better than before we engaged in recreative activities.

Whatever your age - whatever your stage in life - refresh yourself and be a more "balanced" person. Learn the values of wholesome leisure activities, and discover the joys that a change of pace can make through some type of enjoyable recreation experience.
