The Game

Generally when Im heating something in the microwave I designate a time of 45 seconds. 45 seconds seems the perfect amount of time for a whole variety of foods.

On more than one occasion as Im driving somewhere I get the thought how cool would it be if what i was doing now was a game. Like the game is me driving this car right now, with graphics as real as the reality of this very moment. The perfect game would not be one thing/task like driving a car but a merging of every task one experiences in life, say going to work, making friends, getting drunk and acting stupid etc. All the best games put together to form the game of "life". Ive always wanted a game which not only focuses on just 1 aspect of life, but ALL aspects of life. And then I realise that I am in a game so to speak, the best game ever, the game of life, I am in control of myself and my actions. The only difference is that If I was experiencing this exact same reality but from a games machine/simulation I would take more risks. And then I think, why the hell are'nt I taking more risks now? This "game" of life is the most advanced experience I will ever have, more satisfying than any game will ever be. So i put it to you, see life as a game and own that you are in control, take more risks and reap the rewards of greater life experiences.
