Starry night, with absolute stillness around. Quite peace and unbearable silence. Why? Suddenly, the thought struck, you are alone… Suddenly, the entire meaning of the moments stillness changes to something magnanimous… the undefined and suspended chunk of time, becomes a treasure, soon diminishing, with a rapid speed, now that you realise, it is all yours…
Thoughts rush through to you and all of a sudden, you want someone to share these… contemplate on a call and then, a lethargic sigh and you are on your own… So, what do you do? Look around the room, to see if there is anything that can be used for destroying this peace… idiot box… wow, there it is!!! ON! OK, now that it is on, what is it? Why is time not passing? Oh, uninterested in it. A tiny voice pops in to say, hello, I am here, talk to me… I respect my inner voice and painfully allow it to torture me with its thoughts…
Future… no, I have no interest to think about the copious and tumultuous opportunities…
Life… NO… I am content as is and I DO NOT intend to rupture my peace… How dare you suggest that, though!?
Joke? Oh, please! Did you ever see me cracking a joke?
Random? Mmm, interesting, but random what? I can’t gossip… I can’t slander… I don’t want to crib lest I should lose time doing nothing… I want action…
OK… Action! Mmm, how about a walk on the road? No, might not be safe…
OK… a walk in the garden, no, snakes and it is dirty…
OK, you decide… How about just watching TV? Na, too boring…
OK, multi tasking… lets see TV and read a novel and contemplate on cooking…
That is how it goes, on and on, rambling about nothing, for nothing… Are all the days that pointless? Wonder!

Hmmm.. add another one into ur multi tasking.. keep blogging!! :-)
You named the topic as Leisure! but then went into describing your inner thoughts (rumbling & grumbling). Very well described.
After all we are humans (and yes we are!!) and require some company to receive/take inputs, share our thoughts, else you will end up writing more of these :(
We are living for good and specific reasons. See what effectively you can do in those leisure time; you don't have to wonder! you know what to do, don't u?
