HEART OF THE BUSINESS of spotting
forest fires is the rangefinder, right, a de-
vice for determining the range and bearing

of “smokes.” The equipment

year by Dr. David Abraham-

It ig true that we need
a job in order to support
ourselves, to satisfy our eco-
nomic needs, But we are
not as much aware of the
fact that we must also have
emotional satisfaction.

we look

us, we discover one

ent aspect of our lives:
dissatisfaction. People are dis"
satisfied with their jobs, with
hi ied lives or with

satisfaction comes stress and
strain,

One way of counteract:
ing this pressure is to get
away from our everyday jobs
and occupy our minds and
bodies with something that

27 that may give us enjoyment,

Recreation is enjoyment.
I define recreation as all typ-
es of physical and ‘mental act-
ivities which can satisfy our
feelings. Such activities or
hobbies may involve music,

or gardening.
While carrying out these
feel

l activities, we relax and

content. Our minds, in a pec-
uliar way, are at rest, and
re e enjoy ourselves. We have

our basements, for instance,
or we sweat it out putting
new roofs on our houses,
according to the new mod-
ern craze, “do-it-yourself.”
Too many of us spend
the weekend sitting in cars,
bumper-to-bumper on a high-
way, or at a crowded beach.
Or we do something because
somebody else insists that we
shall do it.
Recreation was not meant
2 a way of satisfying
one’s’ emotional needs by
running away from oneself.
Recreation is really tak-

ing yourself in hand and en-
joying every minute of what-
ever you are carrying out.
This “running away from
oneself” is one reason wey
