Muva nje, ngemva kosuku olunzima kakhulu emsebenzini, umngane wami wasikisela ukuthi ngithathe incwadi yemibala lapho ngibuya emsebenzini. Ngathayipha ngokushesha okuthi 'haha' efasiteleni le-Gchat...kuphela ku-Google 'Coloring Books Yabantu Abadala' futhi ngathola imiphumela eminingi phezu kwenqwaba. (Isayensi ithi ukuzilibazisa kunganciphisa ukucindezeleka kanye nokuvivinya umzimba, i-FYI.)

Kuyiqiniso ukuthi ukufaka imibala kudlule iminyaka eyisishiyagalombili nakanjani kunomzuzwana-futhi ngesizathu esihle. Umbala uthathwe njengomsebenzi ophulukisayo, owelaphayo kubantu abadala, waze wahlonishwa ngokusiza iziguli ezinomdlavuza ngokuxilongwa nokuphulukiswa kwazo, ngokocwaningo oluthile olushicilelwe kumagazini I-Psychooncology. Kepha noma ezimweni ezingezinhle kangako-yithi, umbala wokuphothula iziqu esikoleni ungasiza ekunciphiseni ukungezwani, kukusize uphumule, futhi kukhuthaze nobuciko. Njengomuntu owenza umsebenzi wesikhathi esigcwele ngomsebenzi omatasatasa wokuzimela, impilo yomphakathi, uhlelo lokuzivocavoca, nenja, ngivame ukuswela kakhulu i-zen.

Umuntu wami oneminyaka eyisithupha ubudala wayezithanda izincwadi zokufaka imibala, futhi ngangikwazi ukuzijabulisa amahora amaningi ngebhokisi lamakhrayoni nezithombe ezithile. Ngakho-ke ngicabange ukuthi kungani ngingayiphindiseli esikoleni sebanga eliphezulu futhi ngiyidubule? Impela, bekuzwakala kuyinto exakile ukuthenga amakrayoni, ngihlale phansi kusofa, bese ngifaka umbala esithombeni, kepha bengifisa ukwazi ukuthi ngabe kuzokwenza umehluko ezingeni lami lokucindezeleka nasenjabulweni yonke.

Ukuthola Incwadi Yemibala Efanele

Kunezincwadi eziningi kangaka zokufaka imibala kubantu abadala-ngubani owaziyo?! Kusuka kuma-mandalas (noma izimpawu) ezikhuthaza amaphethini anemibala kuya ezincwadini ezinesigcawu ongahle usibone kubuncane bakho bezincwadi zombala, kukhona okuthile wonke umuntu okufanele akufake umbala. Ngizame izincwadi ezimbalwa zokufaka imibala: I-Coloring Dream Mandalas, i-Color Me Happy, kanye nethi Let It Go! Ukufaka Umbala Nemisebenzi Yokuvusa Umqondo Wakho Nokunciphisa I-Stress Incwadi Yokubala Yabantu Abadala. Ngenkathi ngayinye inezinzuzo zayo—ama-mandala ayengenangqondo ngendlela emangalisayo (ukushintshana nje kwemibala ukwenza isithombe esifana ne-kaleidoscope) futhi incwadi ekhulula ukucindezeleka yayilula kakhulu—engangiyithanda kakhulu kwakuyi-Colour Me Happy. Bekungokwesiko kakhulu, kunezithombe zamakhaya abukekayo, ukudla, ukuvakasha, nabantu ongakhetha kukho. Ngikuthandile ukuthi ababhali bafaka umbala kanjani emakhasini ambalwa ukukukhuthaza, kepha okusele kwasala kungenalutho kumqokeleli wokugcwalisa ngamasu abo okusungula nobala. Lapho sengizinze encwadini efanele yokubala imibala, ngabeka isikhumbuzi sekhalenda le-Google ukuze ngizikhumbuze ukuthi ngiphumule.

Ukwahluka Phakathi Kokufaka Umbala Njengengane Uma Ukweqa Njengomuntu Omdala

Ngemuva komsebenzi, ngivame ukubamba isigaba sesibhakela, ngihambise umdlwane, ngigeze bese (ekugcineni!) Ngihlala phansi sidle. Ngaleso sikhathi, ngivame ukuba ngilungele ukuvula i-Netflix futhi ngiphole (ngedwa, ngiyabonga kakhulu). Noma kunjalo, angikhululeki nakancane uma ngibukela ithelevishini ngokuzitika - ngizwa sengathi kukhona okumele ngikwenze. Ngakho-ke ngoLwesibili ebusuku, ngigobeke ngijuluke embhedeni wami ngetiye elishisayo bese lo mntwana ehlafuna ithoyizi lakhe eduze kwami ​​wakhipha incwadi yami entsha yokufaka imibala namakhrayoni ami amahle kakhulu (bewazi ukuthi manje aseyakwazi ukuhlehliswa?) , ngiphenya incwadi yami yokufaka imibala kwaze kwaba yilapho isithombe sikhombisa ukuthanda kwami.

Ngithole indawo ebukekayo enezindlu ezimbalwa namagquma amakhulu. Ngenhla kwezindlu kwakunezinkanyezi eziyishumi nambili noma ngaphezulu, futhi kwangikhumbuza ngokukhulela eNyakatho Carolina, lapho isibhakabhaka sasibonakala siqhubeka unomphela, singaphazanyiswa izakhiwo engizibona manje eNew York. Kwakunokuthile okunokuthula ngesithombe okwangikhumbuza ukuthi ngisekhaya nomndeni wami nalabo engibathanda kakhulu, ngakho-ke ngikhethe eqenjini.

Ngaqala ukufaka umbala esibhakabhakeni njengoba bekuzoba lula kakhulu-futhi phakathi nemizuzu eyi-10, ngangisohlwini. Ngenkathi ngimncane, ngangikhathazeke kakhulu ngokuhlala phakathi kwemigqa futhi ngangilahla isithombe uma singaphelele. Eminyakeni engamashumi amabili kamuva, izindinganiso zami azikho phezulu kangako. Uma kwenzeka ngenza iphutha-engikwenzile, amahlandla amaningi-ngangena kwimodi yokuxazulula izinkinga ngayenza yaba yingxenye yesithombe, into engingakaze ngiyicabangele ngiseyingane.

Ingabe Yayiyifanele I-Hype?

Ngigcine ngifake imibala ngidlule isikhathi sami sokulala ukuze ngiqedele isithombe, futhi, ngokweqiniso, angizange ngibuke i-iPhone yami ukuze ngibone ukuthi isikhathi sini. Angibhekanga izinhlelo zami zokusebenza, angiphendulanga imiyalezo, futhi anginakanga i-TV yangemuva. Lapho ekugcineni ngilala, ngahlukaniswa, ngazumeka. Lapho ngingena emsebenzini ngosuku olulandelayo, ngangena ngikulungele ukusebenza: Ngahlela izindatshana, ngabhala ezimbalwa, ngabela ezinye futhi ngazenza ngebhokisi lemilayezo engenayo ngaphambi kuka-1 emini. Ngizizwe ngikhuthazekile futhi ngidala ubuciko futhi ngibe nokungezwani okuncane kunakuqala. Ukuphela kokuwa kombala: amajaqamba engiwatholile esandleni sami ngokugcwalisa imibala.

Phakathi nesonto elilandelayo, lapho ngizithola ngingakwazi ukulala ebusuku noma lapho ngisebenza kumsebenzi omkhulu emsebenzini futhi ngidinga ukugqugquzelwa, ngakhipha ibhuku lami lemibala ngaqala ukwenza i-doodle kwaze kwachofozwa okuthile. Ngaso sonke isikhathi, ngangizwa ukuthi ukukhululeka kukhululeka emahlombe ami nobuchopho bami buyeka ukuma. Okujabulisayo ukuthi, umfundi wami emsebenzini usanda kunginika incwadi yokufaka imibala njengesipho 'siyabonga', futhi ngagcina ngithengele umama engizomnika yona kuleli holide. Ngiphinde ngathenga eyodwa yomngani osemsebenzini osesha futhi odinga indlela yokuvumela imibono yakhe igeleze. Isipho esilula kakhulu, futhi bengifuna ukukwazi ukwabelana ngaleli thuluzi elinamandla lokukhulula ingcindezi nabantu engibaziyo ukuthi balidinga kakhulu. (Udinga okungaphezu kwencwadi yokufaka imibala? Lawa Amathiphu E-5 Alula Wokulawula Ingcindezi Ayasebenza Ngempela.)

Ngenkathi ngisafaka umbala, ngidedela uhlu lwami Lokwenza. Ngiyayeka ukucabanga ngosuku oluzayo. Ngiyazivumela ngilahleke ngemibala ngilandele imigqa futhi ngicabange ngaphandle kwamakhasi. Ukuphumula kwengqondo kuyasiza-futhi ngokwethembeka, ukudala izindaba nezigcawu nezithombe manje kumnandi njengoba kwakunjalo ngenkathi ngilala ekamelweni lami lokulala lobuntwana.
