In my life, I have played so damn many video games that, I have went from beginner to intermediate to
expert. I ended up being a game blogger and game analyst to the point that people started saying, “Oh, that random kid with gaming post!” or “Oh, that lazy ass gamer guy!” Yeah, I get the fact that here in India playing video games is seen as a kid’s activity but homie, when you are 30 and sitting at home with nothing else to do and no f**** job and thanks to this f**** lock-down that happened in this most shitty year, 2020, only way I would have stayed normal, sane, busy, productive, engaged, creative and entertained would be only through turning my hobby of video gaming into a passion.
But what about the game of life? Where you have no f*** extra life or health pack, no superpowers,
super strength or abilities, no way to cheat to win, or maybe there is because others have been winning this game of trust, bonding, multiple relationships and F**** ups through cheating only. But bro, I wanted to play safe, as always to be a pro and win every challenges life had to offer for me in this battle. I lost some, I won some and some others, I had to let go of, but f**** no I have no F***** regrets.
I know that life will put more challenges in front of me, but that’s how life is, it’s a f**** open word game with an endless game-play till your planned death and where you are to play different roles like you do in a Role Playing game. You play the character or a son, a student, a job holder, a father, a mother, a husband, a wife, a grandfather or a grandmother. You ain’t one character in this massively designed open world of God. So, who you want to be at the end, a hero or villain, is totally your choice. But like I said earlier, that I kind of became a villain here, in my story but now I see myself as an anti-hero, a little happy and a little dark, a little fun spirited and a little savage, you see? I sort of wear an alter ego, a mask, a cape, a costume, because it's inevitable. Why? In other to survive the toxicity and horrors of the next level in this game of life where you will be meet hell lot of backstabbing bums, you need to have a plan B. So, next time you ask, “Why you still play video games like a kid?” my answer would be, “ahem, sorry to say, but life itself is a game. So, chill out and bother me not, cheers.”
Life is just a big game with no pause or reset button, play the game to learn and enjoy from the experience but play it like a pro!
