Are there any activities or hobbies you’ve outgrown or lost interest in over time?
Hey…
I hope all of you are doing well…!
A cold Monday morning that feels unreal because I slept wrong 😑
Woke up with a back pain and sore throat and a reminder to self that I am not going to drink anymore…!
One of my friends got me a bottle of Jamun vodka(black plum) Smirnoff and we downed half of the bottle with a few cans of sprite that we had;
Remind me to never drink ever again…!
(Khair)
We rarely get together and when we do, we discuss a whole lot of things and this is our way to connect over some drinks and cheering each other after getting to know the moments in life that we endured…!
Coming back to the prompt
Activities or hobbies that I’ve grown out of…!
There are many a things I’ve grown out of in this life; firstly I used to drink each weekend and I’ve tried to cut back on that habit, even though I don’t drink anymore, there are some occasions or a gathering where I take a few but nothing I can’t control…!
And because of this drinking habit that I had in the past I had a hobby of collecting new and rare bottles of alcohol;
And whenever; wherever I went, I used to buy a few bottles of drinks to remember the trip by them…!
Going away from the drinking game—
I used to have a habit of visiting a place of worship 🛐, but I was really forced as a teenager to be a part of the religion where we worship a figure of authority; A wish that all of the things that haunt us or cause us harm might go away wish just bowing to a stone figurine;
It all went away when I reached adulthood and embraced that the world is huge and it doesn’t necessarily depend on me bowing down infront of some figure or a scripture but it depends on how I carry myself and how I act instead…!
How religion or religious beliefs were over for me as soon as I gained adult consciousness…!
One of the other activities that I’ve halted is tolerating bs from people who are unknown to me;
I’ve stopped caring for people who come in to interject anything and everything because walking away from such people is a better option to choose than to argue with someone on the street or when you’re sitting down with someone in an open space…!
Stop tolerating is the idea above…!
Cheers 🥂
