And also pay attention mental health. Personally I felt it’s good for me to walk outside, especially a nature trail, with woods etc.

I came across this article – Indian Man At Oracle Laid Off After 12 Years, Wife’s Emotional Note Viral: “Worked Through Holi, Diwali”. This reminds me of one thing – Over the years I recall I worked twice on Thanksgiving holidays. Once I was single and really not much complaints, another time … it was probably year 2017, I worked 2 days out of the 4 day Thanksgivings holiday – I was married and have family everything, and I got into a fight with my wife partially due to my work load. I was not in a good mood; and then she told her friend that I was going to China etc. and said that I could do a favor for the friend by bringing stuff from the US to China. I told her that we already agreed that not broadcasting my upcoming China trip to avoid those kind of potential hassles.
