Caitlin Kelleher- Leisure

When I think of leisure I imagine the crisp white untouched snow of the Colorado Mountains. Skiing down the slopes is my ideal leisure time. When skiing I am literally above everything and all I can see are the beautiful mountains covered in snow. All the stresses of school and work are forgotten when I am skiing. Therefore my definition of a leisure activity is something that takes your mind off of the stressful situations of daily life and allows you to enjoy what you’re doing. This means that leisure can include different activities for different people. While skiing allows me to be free, another person might choose to go for a run, lie out in the sun, or possibly spend time with friends and family. All of which have the powerful ability to relinquish someone of all their pressures and anxieties and therefore, to me, would be consider a leisure activity.
