Great metaphor for this Game of Life. So many opportunities to “level up,” and yet fear and ennui often keep us in that watching, rather than playing, role. I’ve never played games, although I’ve admired the artwork and music in them many times, but I love the concept of earning +1 or -1 points. I look forward to incorporating a point system into my Journaling practice. “Gaming” our goals just sounds like a lot more fun. ♥️🎮

Thank you Marisa :)
If you like music theme, you should explore Final Fantasy X - To Zanarkand and Sutaki Da Ne
Final Fantasy 7 - Aerith Theme / Tifa Theme
We all Become - Transistor main theme
If you like eerie song
Celeste theme - ressurection
and if you like epic kind of song
Elden Ring - Main theme and Malenia theme
Awesome 👍Thanks for the recommendations, Viam :-)
Don’t skip the side quests, you gotta level up if you wanna beat the main boss.
Lotta people want to skip straight to the end without puttin in the reps, no bueno.
Great read.
Has someone been reading PRO?
Great Analogy Viam
Thank you for sharing this! I love the analogy.
I remember how playing dnd inspired me to get that main character energy.
One day, we were playing around the table and I felt so inspired. I felt empowerex, like I had the agency to take my fate into my own hands.
And I thought:
Wait, can't I do that in real life, too?
That gave me so much fuel to get some IRL XP and chase adventures 😄
...
I miss those days.
Thanks for reminding me! 💙
PS: Have you read The Alchemist? It's all about following your "personal legend" 😄
