Are Glasses Necessary?
It is said that spending time in front of the computer can be detrimental to your eyes, however, I used to spend almost 10 hours a day in front of it and have never had any problems. Some have started wearing glasses after only a couple of years of intensive computer use, but I’ve used it for over 10 years and my sight was perfect.
Being very proud of my eye sight, I used to test it on different things such as moving cars, or reading small text on different things, from as far away as possible. My friends, however, started telling me to take care, because at one point my vision would certainly be affected.
Since my parents were telling me the same things as my friends, I decided to take up jogging. I spent some time online looking for the perfect jogging equipment, a good mp3 player, and the best time of the day to start. Armed with this knowledge, my jogging began, every morning.
I was really happy with my choice of equipment, as my sneakers made running much easier, and the SanDisk Sansa c250 2 GB was a joy to listen to. Quite cheap, and with very good sound quality, the player really was much better than I had expected. I even ended up listening to music on it, instead of my computer, due to its better quality.
I currently have achieved a nice balance between jogging and sitting in front of the PC. I’m very happy with myself, and can clearly see that my body is in a much better shape than when I started jogging. My friends and parents have also told me that running has really helped me turn my life around. I love knowing that my health is getting better, but I don’t have to sacrifice my fun and enjoyment to be healthy. There’s a fantastic feeling knowing that!
