Worlds Different

1 Comment

Well, I’ve chosen not to answer today’s question from the daily writing prompt because I have no answer. It asks – If you got to live inside a video game world, which one would you choose?

I haven’t played a video game in many decades. And back then they didn’t have worlds from what I can remember. I do remember playing foosball and pinball machines. Lots of it in my teens and early 20s. One of many games inside we would play. Two of my U of MD friends were pinball wizards.

These along with ping-pong were our staple of active physical activity games. The only games we where we sat was a ton of board games and chess also.

Thinking back, we were much more active than today’s kids sitting for hours behind those controllers. Mostly because when it was light outside, we were outside. Game like ping pong, foosball and pinball were night activities.

With a lifetime and a half in the Newspaper industry I'm preparing for my retirement career as an Artist, Writer, Photographer and Video content provider. I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.

One thought on “Worlds Different”

  1. As a society, we have become so disconnected from each other. It’s really sad.
