The benefit of having fun

We write on serious matter everyday. We are very focused as we persist in the daily struggle for survival.

One might not necessarily need to be smite by the sun or get drenched or sweat before we see it as struggle.

Your daily write up, comments, meetings, thoughts etc are all ways of struggling to survive. However, no amount of sleeplessness or deprivation can assure success without diligence and logic.

Diligence is persistent in whatever we do with utmost right attitude.
Meanwhile logic demands that we pay attention to simple things that seems very unimportant but in fact are paramount to success which has to do with our reasoning.

Why all these

"Hakuna Matata" I will show you the reason.

There's a saying that :

All work and no play they say, makes Jack a dull boy.

We should not be too serious to forget the fun time. Don't get it twisted, Jack loves to work. Here I don't mean "Play" but the fun time.

What does having fun do?

From research, we exhaust more energy when we focus on a particular thing: reading, meditating, teaching, etc.

You might even notice that when you play/have fun, you don't seem to crave for food like when you're busy with certain activities that aren't fun.

A short story about the dilemma of a professor.

Edward was born with the trait of a genius - knows almost everybody before birth. You ask him who is Daniel Dancer, he does not need to visit Wikipedia to tell you the answer.

From age 4, the trait began to expose who he is. He would not have himself around friends or schoolmates either.

He grew up as a known genius, always at his best: made 9 out of ten grades.

While he was in college, friends had always loved to come close to him, have fun and share values, but he rather have fellowship with his book "The Universe" than with friends.

His full teeth only appear once in 365days and that was his birthday.

Some has thought he was an oracle/god in disguise. And the fact remained "he doesn't play.

Few years later, he earned a title as a professor, married with a wife and two kids. Yet he remained that guy who doesn't have time for fun.

His marriage had been a curse to his wife as she got no attention needed. His children waited long if he would someday have fun with them, maybe only on festival period which was uncertain.

Other family members had accepted their fate towards him.

It came a time, Edward developed a disease of the brain (tumor); meanwhile, he had such a case thrice when he was in college. This time, the illness had became resistant that he had few days to live.
His doctor had confirmed that he would kick the bucket not later than two weeks after diagnosis.

He was saddened when he heard. He knew he would live only for few days and nothing more.

He drew his will: gave out larger share of his properties and holdings to the charity.

And it suddenly came to him to spend the little time left with his immediate family and make some fun out of.

It was his first tour ever when he took his wife and kids to see a movie, his wife found it incredible to see her husband doing that.

It was the happiest day for his children.
He continued with having fun for the whole week at a stretch.
He suddenly found out he's better person when he laughs and make fun; he gradually forgot he had less time to say goodbye.

"Three weeks had passed, fourth week is here and I'm yet to die, he told his wife."

He went back for diagnosis and all doctor could said was: "this is unbelievable"

He was diagnosed negative of the illness.
"What a life!" he exclaimed.

Can someone inform the charity that Edward is fine?
