LIFE’S GAME
While I was driving this morning, I realized that almost everything is the same as this “Building your own zoo” –game that my husband and I are playing on the computer.
You have a house that you stay in; fences surrounding the “safe” area at home; roads that you travel every morning. It’s the same people walking their dogs every morning; cycling; sitting on the corner. It’s the same beggars at the very same corner every day begging for food; clothes or anything that could help him feed his “16 wives;10 children; 7 cats and 3 dogs” - all just for a “smile”.
In this “zoo-game” – you have to build your own cages, purchase your own animals and feed them. When the going gets tough, you sell the trees, animals and whatever is available, just to stay in the game….
In this “life-game” – you have a house, partner (husband), children. You make you own garden, buy a car, driving the same roads every day. When the going gets tough, they (the creditors) take your car, your house. You don’t have anything to sell…but you have to stay in this game. There is no delete button to press, no “start over” option. No screen that appears to say: “Feed the children, they are very hungry”, or “this one is very ill”, to warn you.
So in this life’s game, with all it’s every day routine: LIFE EVENTS happen. Events that change your life, let you grow up and change your perceptions on life. I will share more of this events with you soon. Events like when my little 2 year old daughter was diagnosed with Melanoma Skin Cancer; one of my best friends was shot dead, and when my husband suddenly fell ill due to a bug on his brain.
