I usually feel like I need to be doing some type of work at all times. The only other thing is TV. For 2024, one of my resolutions is to play more games. Board games, cards, twister? I’m not exactly sure, but I know this is important somehow.
I was at the afterschool program and this kid had no one to play Connect Four with him. Honestly, I was in a tired and sad mood. It surprised me how good it felt to do something that had concreteness and no stakes.
This is the point of games I think….to give us something to do together that forms an experience that’s not stressful.
We need to take breaks from all the “important” thoughts. Everything can seem so high stakes and, in reality, only a few things are actually important.
Wishing you moments of Peace and Joy today!
Love,
