Hobbies can be a lot of things; they can be things like sports cars and hot dogs, or they can be little things like knitting and crosswords. But whatever they are, the point is that they add up to something: They help us to exercise and spread our mind. It is a fact that almost all of us need more hobbies.

Because honestly, who really wants to sit around and do nothing? Hobbies offer more distractions than we can handle. In a society that constantly charges, where everything is on constantly charged, and everybody s usually addicted to their screens, hobbies sometimes give you an out for a moment. They are also a cheap way out, a chance to relax, unplug and meet new people (not in the physical, 3 dimensional forms anyway) or to simply re-energize. So why not get into a hobby that really good, like fashion design, knitting or even some cooking?

It does not matter what kind of hobby you choose, or how much money you spend on it. The important thing is that you start. And after a while you will see how fast fashion and knitting or baking or sewing evolve into something you do for your real life and that of your family, and how fast your financial outgoings disappear under them. Hobbies are good for us because we get to spend more time with our families – friends, relatives, even our sweet little ones – and so do they get to spend more time with us?
