Gaming has been a love, passion, and regular past time for me since I can remember. There isn't a day that went or goes by that I am not playing a game some kind; and nowadays, even when I sleep I am still progressing smoothly through game milestones. People always ask me why? what is it about gaming that is so appealing that I could sit for hours on end and play "mindless" games? Don't you have any ambitions, dreams, or goals that you want to achieve before you die? Unless you game yourself you can't imagine doing it, but for gamer's we can't imagine not playing. As for me... I can say without a doubt that almost everyone I play with or know do have "normal" lives. Sure, we can spend an outrageous amount of time playing video games, but that is during our own time. Now, whatever the other folks do when not working or paying bills... that is their story to tell; this, is my story.
Over the years since I was old enough really ponder what my future held, I had a certain idea of what that life was going to look like (even with fate and destiny playing their respective roles in my pondering). Pardon my grammar because I am not going to be "P.C." since i have a tendency to type like I talk, but that's not the takeaway here. the takeaway, as I like to view it, is the things I like to do when not gaming; and there is a ton of it to tell. I am very simple in the way I like to live, but that doesn't mean financially either (although I am not rich by any means) but rather materialistically. I don't need much to enjoy life, just the basics; food, home, companion, kids, and such. I know It sounds different than most people but it really isn't because I am easy going so there is very little friction in my life. I do have issues to do with like most, I just handle them and move on, never dwelling on any negative thought for too long (if i can help it). there will always be fires to put out so why let it get me down? it's not like it will change the situation any so I try to stay calm and think rationally at all times with the occasional irrational vices haunting me.
I am just like everyone of course, human, which means that I am just as susceptible to life's little curve-balls it loves to throw at us. what makes them trivial and mundane is the sense of self and the ability to think (emotion free) that makes us strong enough to combat them. Am I always successful? nope, not even close... I fail more times than a little bit because that's just life. we are not supposed to always win because then we can't learn and grow stronger, or at least that's my opinion. but enough about me and my thinking, on to the heart of the matter and the reason for this particular blog...
Until next post folks, and always remember...
