Things that you do in your spare time to relax- RECREATION - it's not a misuse of time. You might have heard that, "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy ".This is a problem that recurs in every generation.The only redeeming factor of the computer-obsessed workaholics is that they have access to stress management.

We need to give time to ourselves often. Work drains our mind and makes us tired. Recreations help replenish those lost energy in us.

I agree with you my friend. But, recreation, should be physical too, not only on the computer. But, to each their own, as long as they take a little time to relax.

Yes, we all have to take time to relax or we will break down. That's the way God designed us. We have to rest and recharge our batteries.

What that phrase should say it "all work and no play makes jack a stressed out grouch". I think recreation is the best form of stress management. Not only does it exercise the body, but it makes a person feel better and relieves the stresses of the day.

If a person doesn't take time out for recreation the person will eventually develop many stresses and will have burn out. It is very important that a person make time for recreation for good mental health.

Recreation- RE-CREATE something again. This is not just relax, but also a way to reform again the situation or the problem what causes stress. Sometimes the computer increases this stress instead of releasing it.
