"A pursuit intended to be pleasurable morphs into a chore. A delicious diversion becomes a duty." This emphasizes how leisure activities can become stress-inducing tasks instead of enjoyable pursuits.
"Some people routinely start their day by playing it. Sometimes one can be lucky and hit on the day's word quickly; other times it can be baffling." This illustrates how a fun game can also lead to frustration.
"Downtime needs to be enjoyed wholeheartedly, yet many find themselves shoehorning leisure activities into lengthy to-do lists." This suggests a disconnect between intended relaxation and actual experience.
