The games of Life can get immersive. The role in the game I’m playing becomes my identity.

I am this job

I am a wife or husband

I am a Democrat or Republican

I am rich or poor

I am oppressed or oppressor.

I am winning, I am losing.

The games of Life make it interesting. The games have a structure to them and general rules to follow. They provide me valuable support and motivation. But the games are superficial.

They are constructs we create. Layers that obscure the realization:

Of the miracle of being human.
