无As is known to us all, Churchill was a famous statesman, but perhaps few people knew that painting was a hobby he stuck to for more than forty years. At that time, he was afraid that he would develop neurosis because of extreme stress and would not live long. That was because he clearly saw all the serious and urgent problems and knew the wise measures to solve these problems, but he was not in power. How to relieve stress? This was a problem Churchill was faced with. Encouraged by a friend, he decided to study oil painting as a hobby. Painting enriched his spiritual life and challenged his mind. He painted when he felt bored. With the great improvement of painting skills, he can observe and enjoy the beauty of nature more carefully. Life is therefore more meaningful and happier for him than before.
From the story, we know it is of vital importance for one to have a hobby in life. Because it helps you break the monotony of life, enrich your leisure time in a rational and artistic way, and relieve your stress!
