What becomes of harmless childhood games
Remember the age old game of cat and mouse. We started out watching it on television. Then we started school and at recess we would chase or be chased or catch or be caught. Yes just a harmless child's game that we played just to have some fun. Just like red light green light, tag and hide and seek. But what we don't realize is that the games we played we still play today. We just play a grown up version now because we have learned what we needed from the previous forms of the game and now we play them and don't acknowledge the name. When we break up only to make up we're only playing tag. Dance contest, don't act like you didn't participate, was practice for the club lol. We learned early what happens when you move on a red light but we call them tickets now. It's funny how growing up we practice playing the game of life until we are actually old enough to live it on our own. The only problem is that with all of the practice and getting life right some of us still can't grasp life and for those of us who can...we live

As children you would think we would have learn everything we need to know.For some odd reason the older we get the games don't stop. Tag your it was cute at the age of ten; playing duck duck goose was even better, remember playing with that guy or girl in middle school. he would pull your hair and you would act like your upset. These past of ours as not change, Not everyone can handle not playing childhood games. I wonder if we will ever grow up.

ReplyDeleteAlthough, for many people, life becomes an advanced course on Rocket Science, it sadly appears.
