Can leisure be helpful in rejuvenating life? (Leisure) (HI)
The poet laments over the busy life of modem man who is running after material pursuits. Modem man is too busy to enjoy the beauties of nature around him. He is so mucn absorbed in his work that he cannot find time to appreciate the natural charm which God has provided him.The poet says that it is sad that we have no time to see beautiful and charming scenes of nature. Leisure is a mild satire on the modem computerized and mechanical life. Man cannot enjoy the natural beauty because he is worried about his worldly problem. Man is helpless against problems, difficulties and worries of life.
He works from morning till evening to fulfil his desires and wishes to make his life comfortable.
No doubt, it is difficult to find care-free time in this industrial and commercial age but in spite of all the engagements and activities, man can still enjoy the natural beauty around him. The important prerequisite is that we must change our attitudes. We must develop aesthetic sense in us and must educate ourselves how to enjoy the natural beauty.
We must team to ge pleasure from ordinary objects of nature. We must think that after all we are human beings having passions, emotions, likes, dislikes and ambitions. We must reduce or minimize our lust for wealth. We must be contented with our present position. We must think that we are human beings not robots. We should bring change in our day-to- day life to get some free time for happiness and pleasure.
God has blessed us with a lot of natural objects and beauties of nature around us free of cost. We need no money to buy these natural beauties. We can make our life delightful and colourful by enjoying these physical charms.
We must think that happiness always comes bit by bit and it never comes in bulk. So, we agree with the poet that modern man is busy in material pursuits of life but we can enjoy the natural delights by changing our attitude by developing our aesthetic sense and
educating ourself, we can enjoy the natural beauties blessed by God Almighty. It is concluded that leisure can be helpful in rejuvenating life because if a man becomes a beast of burden, he loses all charms of life.
