It is generally said that it is more comfortable to spend time alone. Some people might disagree with the statement, and this is plausible argument considering some leisure activities which require to join several people. I, however, believe that spending time alone is a better way to release stress. Let me compare and contrast in order to show my opinion more clearly.
On one hand, if I have free time by myself with being alone, I can enjoy past time in my own ways. It doesn't take a genius to know that we should dress up and make a phone call in order to hang out with friends, which makes us me stressful. Since I spend most of time on working and talking to other people, being alone in a my calm and peaceful my room is very relaxing. And a research that supports my preferance has been released recently. According to Gallup, the famous research institute in Korea, it is reported 85% of that people living in my city prefers staying just in home in their free time to going outside. They reponded that listening to music and watching the videos in home is the best way to release stress, which means people are more likely to be alone in their free time.OR which means being alone in their free time is a popular choice among people.
On the other hand, it would be advantegeous to spend time with others together because some exciting activities need people to join. Everyone knows that people would love to play sports, chat with friends, which are group activities. People enjoy group activities such as playing sports or chatting with friends. For instance, my sister usually has spends her free time with her friends, going shopping, having brunch at cafes, talking about her career, gossip, and even her love life.(gossip은 talking about할 수있는게 아니라 그냥 gossiping이라고 동사형으로 써주세요 :) She always says that if she spent time by herself, it would be very depressingdepressed. Likewise, it might be good to hang out with people in free time.
To summeraize what I mentioned above, this issue depends on the situation I have because it is not a black-or-white issue. However, I believe that the benefits from being alone in free time outweigh those from hanging out with friends. This is because I'm usully very busy with my career and surrounded by noise . noisy and busy career life. Thus I am eager to enjoy by myself in my free time by myself. |
