SEC-S17 /W6| "🌸What do you prefer to do in your leisure time?"

Greetings friends!

Actually with passage of time and circumstances our passion and leisure both take new perspective with new idiology.

🌸 Reading a book or listening to music?

At one point of time I was very fond of reading books when I have read Bangali as well as foreign literature either in English or translations. One of my favourite authors was Gabriel Garcia Marquez when he got the Nobel for his book Hundred years of Solitude.

Like all Bengalis I'm also introduced to Rabindra Nath Thakur with the poem Kumor Parar Gorur Gari in my early childhood. At adolescent Nirjharer Swapnabhanga by Rabindranath was my favourite poem. At that junction we also started listening to Rabindrasangeet and most adorable song was Bhalobeshe Sokhi Nivrite Jotone. Actually whatever Rabindra Nath has written is applicable to everyone at a perticular stage of life. Many feel the true essence of poetry and songs cannot be expressed in translations. The translations made by Kabiguru are only source of nectar for people who doesn't know Bengali.

🌸 Social media, using Instagram or Facebook?

Ofcourse I have spent lot of time watching others videos both at Facebook and YouTube. It is quite pleasurable to view travel vlogs and food vlogs. There are many mindfulness contents also. I'm very much scared about the paid promotions particularly in YouTube videos. Moreover food recipe videos are need to be certified or verified by some regulatory bodies like Food Safety and Standards Authority (fasai) of India for the aquracy and authenticity of the recipes.

🌸 A movie Night with friends or family?why?

In my youth movie was very popular and it was very exciting to watch a movie in the matinee show on the release day of the movie. However old movie could be seen at any show time. Yes it was very relaxing to watch movies in the night show after days turmoil. That was the golden period of indian movies in 70s to 90s when people used to go to single scree movie theatres. Probably I have spent about one year's movie ticket price in a single day at multiplex. The latest movie I saw alone Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiy after about five years in cinema hall. It was one of the absurd movie I saw ever in life.

🌸 Keeping a pet at home, Cat or Dog? Tell us the reason. OR If you prefer to spend time in the lap of nature and planting ☘️, then let us know?

Travelling is one of the best ways to enhance my personal growth. It allows me to step out from my comfort zone to a different environment which enables me to become more responsible and adaptive. Travelling helps open up my mind by meeting new people and different cultures. Travelling also helps me experience a new adventure. A restful vacation is just what I need to rejuvenate myself. Traveling helps my mind and body reboot. It improves my thoughts, mood and goals. It cuts down stress to lower down chances of my heart diseases. The health benefits of travelling are huge as well as sometimes redefining the meaning of life. Travelling is a crucial part of life as it is the best way to get out of my busy schedule.@impersonal

Before I conclude I would like to invite three fellow Steemians to participate in the contest. @crismenia @joymm @eveetim.
