What are you doing this evening?
The smartwatch vibrated with the alarm that had been set. Naveen looked at the watch, it was 3 pm. Today was a holiday and Naveen decided to spend some time with his game console. He had been a regular gamer once, all from the school days and through his college days. But now it has become a distant memory of the past.
Despite his mother’s constant chant of ‘get rid of that thing already, it’s just occupying space’, Naveen continued to keep his old game console with the hope of finding the time to reunite with it one day.
In the initial phase of his professional life, he did try to play games now and then but then one day he became concerned with an issue, degrading fitness, heavy breathing pursued certain physical activities which he could do easily before. The recent photographs showed a body wider on the waist than the one which was there in photographs from a couple of years ago.
Hence, with a heavy heart Naveen convinced himself to put a break on his ventures into the game world and focus on levelling up his physical fitness in the real world. The evening exercise not only took away the gaming time but also ended up costing him another of his hobbies, reading books at night. He was just too tired after a day’s work and two hours of exercise. But he knew from the newspapers, physical well being was a real issue in the world and any form of deficiency was not to be taken lightly.
‘One day for sure I will get you all back’ Naveen imagined telling his hobbies. That was around seven months back.
Things are better now; he has more energy and stamina to do things he loves. He has read a lot of books and has made a long list of what other books he wants to read. He even plays games for his own channel on a social media platform after his girlfriend suggested that he could think and define it as work, it would make things simpler for him and the world around him.
Naveen stopped the alarm on his smartwatch and decided to sleep for an hour before beginning the holiday special early exercise session. He tried to make sure his evenings were scheduled for this evening activity which he was going to continue for a very long time.
