Play

When was the last time you played a game?

if your answer was within the last seven days, close the post. If your answer was MORE than seven days ago I'll begin with a question; why so long? And while you consider your answer (most likely stitched together from a multitude of possibilities...;-) let me fill the space with a few benefits of playing;

• Makes time flow like water
• Pokes, prods and prompts emotional engagement
• Catalyzes connections, insights and problem solving
• Sharpens communication skills
• Enthuses possibility
• Demands present moment engagement

Which of the above are not attractive? One or two of six? Three?

While you consider the cost/benefits of play ("Where's my phone?", "I'm too busy.", "What's on TV?") I'm going to go play, it's been a few days!
