The Diary game:Better life with steem. A Day Balanced with Work, Worship, and Wellness 24 April
The vibrant summer has actually brought life and hope these days. It is the chirping of birds that helps me wake up very early in the morning. Such chirping is quite absent in winters, when birds too stay away from the open and remain in well-closed places to stay safe. Now, when the temperature has risen significantly, some of the birds have started living on the huge walnut trees located just behind our house, and as they start chirping very early in the day, it acts like a natural alarm.
Anyways, when I got up, I performed ablution and then offered the prayers, and only upon making supplications and finishing the prayers, I returned back home. Now it was time to do some physical exercise in the backyard to help myself stay fit and agile throughout the day. As during the winters I wasn’t able to do any physical exercise, now to compensate for that I would have to push myself a bit more so that I could burn some extra calories.
Soon after I was done with the physical exercise, it was time to water the lawn, as it is spring season and the lawn has just turned green. Since there hasn’t been enough rainfall in the past one or two weeks, watering the lawn was quite important. So now, after I was done with all these works, I went inside, helped my mom with some morning chores in the kitchen, and then had my breakfast.
As it was Friday, I was asked to do my office work from home by working online. I logged into the portal that I work on and did my job there, and by 1 PM, I was done with all my work. Now it was time to have lunch and then leave for the congregational Friday prayers. Soon after taking a shower, I left for the mosque, and unfortunately for me, I was one of the last comers and had to stay in the last row.
Anyways, upon finishing the prayers, I had to go to the bank, where I had to submit a cheque that was received by my brother a few days before. After submitting the cheque at the bank, I realized I was very close to my maternal home, and I thought of visiting my grandmother. I spent some good time with her there, and she offered me some eatables. It was around 4 PM when I returned back home.
Now it was time to do some reading, as I am fond of reading history and polity, and that’s what I did. I read a few chapters of Indian history and learned how the course of history changed after India’s independence in 1947 and how different governments managed to develop this huge country.
Today, I was in the mood to go to the gym, and I feel like I must join again because I have gained weight over the past few years. Now it’s time to lose some weight, as I feel that I have become a little heavy. For that, I needed to go to a gym located about 1 km away, and soon after I was done with the gym, I went to a local street vendor who sells Kashmiri cuisine Wazwan, where I had a few barbecues and one rista.
After that, I got a call from my brother, who had to leave for his in-laws’ house in the car, and I was asked to return back with the car. I quickly returned and handed over the car to him. Now it was time for me to stay in my room and read some more history until it was dinner time.
Later, after having dinner, I again went to my room, spent some time on social media, and then at around 11:30 PM, I felt sleepy. I turned off my phone and went to sleep.
