Most of us merely exist in our mechanical lives. We have a set routine from morning to evening, no matter whether we are working, business people, students, home makers or any other. We get little time for ourselves outside this set routine. Even this limited free time is often spent in ways diffferent from how we would like to spend. There are many issues like unhealthy competition, work pressures, societal pressures, personal problems and health issues that affect our heart and we normally dont give our hearts enough time to recover from all these.

The mind and heart needs some rest and it cannot be subjected to continuous stress. So, we all need to take a break from our routine and relax for atleast one week in a year. It is a break from the routine and it really does not matter whether we travel, holiday or sleep. When working people take a break, they may like to spend their time with family, friends or being alone. For home makers, the needs could be slightly different. They are already spending all their time with their family throughout the year. So, in the one week they take off, they can consider spending their time with friends or even alone.

My idea of a good break is when I am in the company of a person who loves me for what I am and who loves to be with me and we shut ourselves from the rest of the world. Even if it happens only for a couple of days in a year, our lives would be worth loving.

So, guys and gals. Take a break and enjoy yourselves.
