Hobby means a useful work in which one takes interest and derives pleasure by doing it in his spare time. There is a saying ‘An empty mind is a devil’s workshop’. To avoid idle, people have some hobbies. They provide an entertainment to or mind after a day’s hard work. They keep us busy and save us from wasting our time in idle gossip. Hobby provides us a good source of entertainment and amusement.
There are many kinds of hobbies like gardening, stamp-collection, coin-collection, photography, reading and playing games etc. A person adopts according to one’s leisure hours and choice. Gardening is my favorite hobby through which I can see nature and enjoy it. Nature is a true and dependent guide of man. William Wordsworth, The English poet, said that nature never betrays anyone who loves her. My small garden is so lovely that I do something in it daily to add to its beauty. It takes most of my leisure time. I have grown flower plants of rose, lily, jasmine, marigold, poppy, sunflower. The sweet fragrance of the flowers serves as a tonic for my body and mind and thus helps of fruit also. There is an adequate growth of vegetable in our compound. So we rarely purchase any vegetables from the market.
Gardening is my sincere friend and inspires me whenever I am in a depressed mood. Whenever I cast a glance over my small garden and see the beautiful flowers, my heart deal about plant life. Today, I know about the numerous varieties of the plants and flowers. I have learnt the art of vegetable cultivation. Now, botany has become a very interesting subject for me. On holidays, I work hours together in my garden. Hobby is an interesting pursuit trough, which, one can derive pleasure, recreation and amusement during his free time. By having a hobby we can pass our time easily. This is blessing for old and young alike.
