Hey there! Today, I want to chat about something in my gambling experience. You know, gambling more or less the same like the games we play as kids, but of course you know how they claimed this to be the adult type money games.
What Makes Us Play?
As a little kid, have you ever seen those big, shiny places with lots of lights where everything looks colorful? It’s like a magical world with surprises! Yes, an amusement park would be the best term to describe it.
It is super fun right? And as a child, we are truly mesmerized by it. But, did you know how we get caught up in hoping to keep going that place?
Imagine if we could peek inside our grown-up thinking caps. What do you think makes us love “having fun” so much? It’s not just about entertainment, it’s not about winning too; it’s like a big puzzle of feelings and thoughts. You may call it dopamine.
Sometimes, it makes us happy and forget about hard things. But, what if playing too much becomes a not-so-great game? Fighting for a comeback? Remember that moment?
The Hidden Feelings
I bet most of you ever feel sad or mad but didn’t know how to tell someone. This is the kind of same experience when playing games can be like a hiding spot for those feelings. Each time your expectation crumbled, you are affected.
And that’s how we are drowning under the dark spot of our mind. We are greedy beings. We never like to lose, we always want to win. But what if, you are winning in simple games, is it fun? I bet it won’t. The challenge is gone and winning doesn’t even matter.
Now, here’s a big question: How can we stop if we play too much? First, we can use our simple feelings and try to understand that it’s not a happy game for us. Remember, no matter what the game, it was supposed to be fun.
Next, we can try to share about our feelings. Sometimes, doing a simple punch on sandbag could make us feel much better.
Turning Sad into Happy
Okay, imagine if we had a magic wand to fix the not-so-great game we are playing. What do you think we could do? We can find new games that make us smile or it would be more fun to play it together with friends, not to achieve winning but to compete. How much fun and laugh the game would be! Cool, right?
To wrap up our little chat, remember, we can keep being the loser or we can just enjoy it, or be the awesome helpers for your friends to help them out from that “revenge” mode. Together, we can make a world where everyone plays happy games and feels super duper good. Thanks for hanging out with me today! Until next time, let’s spread joy and kindness all around!
