AN IMPOSSIBLE QUESTION

What’s your favorite game (card, board, video, etc.)? Why?

FAVOURITE GAME

This is somewhat of a difficult question for me to answer.

I have never played cards (the standard pack) in my life. I wouldn’t know where to begin on analysing a pack of cards or beginning to understand any of the games played with them.

Video games are not my thing. I’ve never had a video game application on my phone, iPad, or laptop. To me, video games are a waste of time and miss use of technology. I know that not everybody will agree with me on that particular perception, but we are all different from each other.

Once upon a time I used to played board games – but that was as a child. Included were “Snakes and Letters“, “drafts”, “Chinese Checkers“, “Monopoly“, and “Test Match“.

At one stage when just a little boy, I can meet remember being mesmerised by “Pink Up Sticks”.

As I merged into adolescence and young adulthood, any desire to play board games disappeared and has never returned.

I sometimes wonder whether not playing these sorts of games has somehow or other stunted my character or deprived me of investigative undertaking and lateral thinking opportunities.

But that’s the way it is.

  1. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on games! It’s fascinating how each of us has different preferences when it comes to entertainment. While some enjoy card games, video games, or board games, it’s perfectly fine if they are not your cup of tea.

    It’s intriguing how our interests evolve as we grow older. Childhood memories of playing board games like “Snakes and Letters,” “Chinese Checkers,” and “Monopoly” bring back nostalgic feelings for many. As we mature, our priorities and interests naturally change, and that’s all part of life’s journey.

    You might not have played these games, but it doesn’t mean you lack character or investigative skills. We all have unique ways of learning and engaging with the world around us. Embracing our differences is what makes life interesting and diverse.

    Keep sharing your writing and thoughts on this platform! It’s wonderful to see how education has played a significant role in shaping your perspective. Looking forward to reading more from you! 📚✨

    • Thank you for your encouraging comments. Your words remind me of the fact that “synergy“ (collective energy) Where we all contribute to life and living is ever so important.

  2. In cards and games, you find no glee,
    Yet in life’s vast board, you roam free.
    Puzzles unplayed, no cause for regret,
    Your words are a game, in verse they’re met
    —how fun to read, indeed!
