Planting a plant from a seed, watching the first leaf coming out from inside, growing from one inch to a mature plant, and producing flowers and/or fruits is so mesmerizing for me. To think that I actually deliver the plant into the world is rewarding. Nature is always kind to us when we are kind to it. It pays your sweat with sweet toil. Planting is my hobby beside reading.
Having a hobby is vital for our insanity. Having a hectic lifestyle in this modern world, we are always tensed. We need something to loosen up. To loosen up some people choose to eat. Some choose to laze in front of the tv. Some choose to listen to music. While all these does loosen our tenseness, it is not healthy enough. We need to do something physical that will produce sweat. We need to get our blood flowing properly. Too many people die of heart attack nowadays. Try jogging or even strolling in the evening. At least once a week. Get out mind clear up with the fresh air.
Eating, watching television, or listening to music is like holding up our problem for the time being. It does not contribute significantly to our physical health. So put on your jogging shoes, have a small garden, do whatever that will take you outside and sweating. Good luck. May Allah bless us all.
