Do you play in your daily life? What says “playtime” to you?
Hey..!
I hope all of you are doing well…!
It’s second of january and I hope all of you are still working hard to move according to your goals,
This might be too soon,
But,
As many people I’ve talked to, they haven’t set any concrete goals for the year and the fact that they don’t have anything that pushes them above and beyond to work hard enough to gain something that they dreamt of earlier…!
Maybe the depreciation value of rupee is to blame, maybe it’s the fact that anything and everything that we buy costs more than what it should…!
Maybe the widespread distrust in the fact that it would get any better than what currently is going on…!
For me it’s the fact that new year came on the weirdest day, a Thursday…!?
Some people are sending me messages today, and I got confused for a second myself;
Like “ I hope I didn’t wish people New Year’s wishes a day ahead…!”
But I didn’t and I wasn’t wrong…!
I don’t know what’s up with that…?
Well,
Coming back to the prompt;
This prompt couldn’t have come at a good time,
One of my goals this year is to include actual time to sports or something that I consider playtime…!
I have a nephew that comes to my home and wants me to play Roblox with him, and I kid you not within 15-20 minutes entirety of my brain starts to hurt 😢(and he plays it for hours upon hours…!!!)
Sometime he wants to play “rivals” a first person shooter game..
and
Sometimes he just plays (I don’t know if I’m saying the name right…!)
“Steal a/the brainrot…”
And let me tell you something,
The entire premise of the game,
“Is to steal a freaking brainrot and keep your base safe and locked, maybe buy some of them and level up(which I haven’t found out how do to it as of yet…?!)”
No I wasn’t speaking gibberish, it is the actual game and the actual truth…!
But,
Yeah I want to involve myself in some sort of sport like badminton or table tennis, because that’s what we played when I was young and we enjoy it a whole lot now when we make time to play,
Which is also replaced by a mini game in Roblox…🥲🥲
Something that says playtime to me means that can be free of the stresses that this world brings to me and I feel refreshed and satisfied;
To end up with clear mind after playing for a good hour or 45 minutes…!
After which I end up focusing better on things that need my actual attention;
Well, Friday is upon us and I wish all of you to take it slow, maybe you postponed the parties and plans to the weekend and this counts as the last working day of the week, so work hard today and party tomorrow…!
I hope you have someone dear to you or a loved one with whom you can spend time with this year;
Maybe go out for a treat or surprise each other with some gifts,
Because at the end of the day,
It’s only you and them who will stay;
The rest will go back to their own safe space and forget all about you until they see you once again at work or passing by on the street somewhere…!
Cheers 🥂
Love Waakiye 🤍
