The busy world we have right now is really putting up too much stress on us. We can go unwind, but only for short time, and the next thing we know, it's back to reality again, being back to work and get stressed out.
How are you able to enjoy your life and making the most out of it?

I enjoy life by riding my horse. I feel so relaxed and at peace when I ride my horse. I also like camping with the family and cooking. I do these things quite often since I am currently only doing freelance work.

My full-time job taking many hours each work day, my time to enjoy life (apart from work) gets so limited. Some days, it would be close to midnight by the time I get back home. Turn on the radio and stretch out on the couch. That's about it. I do have to try to find ways to relax when it gets to the weekend or holidays.

I do try to enjoy every moment that I can, as much as I can. Life is too short not to try and enjoy every minute of it, as much as we can. I enjoy all the moments I get to spend with my husband, friends, and family. I enjoy the moments I get to relax. I enjoy the moments I go for walks. These are just a few things that I enjoy doing and do make life more enjoyable.

That is why I love working on shift. I work 4 days (2 day shift, 2 night shift) and have another 4 days off. If I don't go for overtime or courses, I will have the whole 4 days to spend with my family.
If the day is bright and sunny, we will go to the park or go to the beach. We take a good fresh air there and my 2 year old son will have more space to run about.

Yes, i get to enjoy life, each and everyday. But, i enjoy it most during those holidays, when our daughter is home from her studies at a far away city.
Just being with the family , is an enjoyment of life to me.
have a nice day!

I think everybady is struggling to balance work and home life. We feel short of time when it comes to enjoy life. Life is too short, I think we should enjoy every moment as it comes, Becouse we cant take out time to enjoy so start enjoying what we have.
Good luck!

hello kimi,
Yes,i enjoy my life.
Last night my friends and i visited a common friend (Indian national) and we had dinner with them.
We enjoy learning,how to cook some Indian foods.
I work during weekdays,and same time do the household chores.
I enjoy bonding moments with kids on Sarudays.
I went to church on Sunday and met friends Sunday night after church activities.
I always find time to relax,though yes it is true that after those fun and relaxation you will still be doing same thing all over again.
it is a matter of contentment with simple things and how we enjoy life.
have a great day always and welcome to mylot

However busy i am i make time for exercise,music watching programs of interest and going out with my family once in a while.I have to shut out the stress of everyday life else i'll pulled under its strain.Without diversions life will be more stressful and we'll end in health problems.Its best we make time for activities which relieve stress and make us more relaxed.
