Many a times when body starts feeling the temperature, it starts affecting every other small action, as simple as interaction. But there is one thing that has worked for me since my teenage years. Every time I felt tired or exhausted. When body felt like breaking up, lethargy, uneasiness or just plainly feeling low crept up. I always called up a friend and played a sport. Probably sweating it out, screaming, shouting and expressing every other emotion that comes with it.

I learnt playing Table tennis only a few years ago and since then it has only added dimensions the way my body reacts while moving, watching the spin of the ball, or the moment when you know it has to be smashed. It has always been an exciting mix of playing serves with different arms of various nationalities and minds. It has made conversations start and built observations. It is as good as chess and as fast as instinct.

I lost four games out of seven today but by the time it ended, my body ache was gone. That strange sensation around my cheek bone was gone, temperature left for good and it allowed me to sit for an extra hour of editing. I was feeling light.

Play an indoor sport. Learn it. You will be surprised by some friends that you will make or earn along the way.
