We all get caught up in the busyness of life and forget to take time out for ourselves. Everyone always thinks there's not enough “time” to take time for yourself. There’s always too much to do, but everything in life requires balance. James Allen, one of our dining room attendants at Hampden Sydney College is passionate about painting and takes the time to explore that passion. Mr. Allen’s art is shown below.
If painting isn’t your thing there are plenty of other things you can get into to give your mind a break. Try out knitting or scrapbooking, these artistic escapes really help balance out the stress the brain is always under. Remember. Explore your passion. Make sure to make time to do the things you love, because we value you and you should value yourself.
