Enjoyments In Our Streets. #photofeed Contest Round 71. Street Photography

Life must be balanced in all aspects if one will truly think of living it to its fullest. It is not an advice to work like a workaholic and not take out some time for refreshment. It is also not out of place if you relax outdoors with some friends to take some locally made or sophisticated foreign cookies after work.

Working to earn income for the upkeep of the family is an essential necessity. We are plagued with domestic needs such as children's necessities, food at home, school fees, and other bills. Keeping these in mind, we must be wise in the way we spend. It is advisable not to spend by impulse or out of instinct. Careless spending could lead to poverty.

Balance in life is attained when we learn to relax both our muscles and our minds. We should understand that the body we have is what we are using to make the money we are bringing home. Depression and nagging at home can be eased when we sometimes go out to chat with friends and take a few chips with soft drinks. I’m not suggesting you spend casually, but I'm tipping that much stress can be avoided if a few cents is spent chilling out.

In our streets we have several joints where we stop by and get a few things for refreshment. One of those in the image in my photograph. It is a small stall where a woman fries fish to soothe the longing pleasure of some people who want some refreshment after work. In that shade we come out there to buy fried fish from the old mama and take it home either for cooking or for just eating with soft drinks.
