Fun alone


It’s Me time…… Now!
Aditi Gyanesh

In this tiresome run of life among glittering lights of metro cities, human being is always surrounded by their loved ones- friends, family, colleagues and many others. They do everything to keep them happy but what about their own needs, love, affection and fun for their own life. All lost! In limelight of showing love to others.
It is said that one who does not have peace and happiness within himself, cannot bring peace and happiness to others also. So what to do to bring happiness at your door? The answer is here; spend some time with yourself, alone, far away from hustle and bustle of relationships, hectic office schedule and the polluted nature. Fun alone! Is not the new concept, the only need is to revive it.

The best thing about "me time" is you're not going to have any interruptions. So, catch up on that English paper, study for that history test next week, clean your room, and work on that science project. Go outside and enjoy nature. A solo hike allows you to observe nature without distractions of friends. You'll be surprised how fun and relaxing watching the clouds go by can be, how freaky a deep sea diving could be, and how childish it could be when you walk on somebody else’s footprints on sea beach, trying not to distort its sequence.
Abiral kumar, 20, a budding writer and a student at Delhi University says, “I never understood the concept of having fun alone but after coming here in Delhi, I observed that it’s real fun to enjoy alone. You get a lot of time to pamper yourself, explore yourself and bring out the real child out of you.” Abiral loves to play guitar when he is alone and experiment with different funny tunes that makes his friends laugh whenever they listen him secretly. “I love playing guitar but not in front of everyone, its real fun when I play with tunes.” He added later.
Today, out of every 10 people 5 wants peace of mind and spend some time doing crazy things like reading all the old comics at once, experiments in weird style of cooking no matter it would be digestible or not, painting the house walls on your own, or just a spontaneous trip at late night to a beautiful place, far away from home etc. “Today human being has become so tangled within threads of maintaining relationships that they have lost connection with their own soul. I would suggest if one wants to live his life to the fullest then he should do every damn thing that he has planned in his teenage and childhood,” said Anurag Somvanshi, a counsellor in North Delhi.
There are more fun to catch than just being lonely and sit down thinking you are alone in this world. Hold your breath, shout a loud and call the notorious child inside you. The "me time" is mainly the time you can create, mediate, research, maintain, evaluate and refurbish your life for a more meaningful result. An idle mind they said is the devil's workshop but it could be a creative one as well.
Nivedita Singh, a socialist and a Graduate from University, lost her all interests and avoided them to concentrate on studies. She have mind full of creative ideas for everything her friend say but we never saw her doing so openly. She did every creative work for university but at the time of credits she was always missing. When asked to Nivedita about her secret creativity contribution she said, “I love doing it all but alone because interruptions always distract me. People think I am proud. By doing so I feel connected to people as well as my soul. It’s the definition of having fun for me.” There are many more like Nivedita who love to have fun alone, which not only give them peace but a refreshment from all social hustle and bustle.
Today’s generation defines fun as partying in discos, drinking, hanging out with friends and lots more but when asked they always say, this was missing we will do it next time, they spoiled the whole plan etc etc. So instead of blaming your friends for spoiling your happiness it’s the time to enjoy all alone. Have a Break! Take your old lovely things, sit down at lonely place to laugh and giggle for yourself, and experience the change.
