Having fun encompasses many areas of one’s life. So much in this world brings joy and creates fun for so many. But what brings fun for one is different from what brings fun for someone else. For me, there are a number of activities I do for fun. Here is a list of five.
Of course, there are other activities connected with these items that create fun, but these are the main ones.
What is something you like to do that clears your mind and allows your mind to think creatively at the same time? For me it’s putting together a jigsaw puzzle. If there is something that does this for you, but you haven’t done it in a long time, do it.
Have you ever put together a jigsaw puzzle? What do you start with? The side pieces? The middle pieces? Usually one works with the edges first, then the middle, and the center (or near there) is the ending where the last and final piece of the puzzle gets put down and it all comes together. Usually, that is. Maybe you’re the kind of puzzler that works from the center to the outer edges (shoulder shrug here). It really is what you’re comfortable with. I like putting the edges together first and work my way to the center.
I write much the same way. I start with the beginning (edges) and work my way to the center (ending). (Laughing here) Sometimes I have my beginning and ending and work the middle last to bring it all together. But…what if your middle is in pieces. You have lots of ideas but you just are not able to bring them together and make them fit so that there’s a flow to your story. What are you going to make them fit?
