Should adults be playing games?


What games did you play? This is literally speaking , real games or sports. Every time I think of my youth and my childhood it never fails to brighten my day specially when I think of the times that we played.

Studies show that as humans, play is hardwired into our genetic code. As humans, we crave the need to play because it is instinctive and fundamental to human existence.

As a back in the Philippines we never have to go far to play. No need to go to a park or field or a club. We played in the streets. know each other in the street. We played anything from play house , patintero, tumbang preso, chinese garter, football, tug of war. taguan and many more. We never get tired of them. I also played tex, bottle caps, rubber band, sipa and will you believe spiders?

When I was a I still played games like board games. Scrabble, chinese checker, monopoly, chess, dama, games of the general. Also played sports badminton and volleyball. There are also card games poker, black jack, lucky 9, forty one, tong-its.

Then came the high tech; game and watch , nintendo and atari. Who can forget the game arcades Fiesta Carnival in Cubao? The driving , hockey, shooting range and the lot. Remember pacman? Now the video games including online.

As we grow older we got so engrossed with building career, starting family, professional development that we forgot about playing games. Some of us took their games to professional level and turn it into a profession, a career or a gamble. Others are not so lucky but much more unfortunate are those who never outgrown playing games such that everything in life for them is just a game.

Even if we are already mature we should never stop playing games. Games has proven benefits. Play is extremely important for humans from birt. It is not meant to be just for . It is a form of release and connection that can tap the creativity and can allow you the chance to connect with your inner and the inner of others. Play is a state of mind, but it is also a state of body, emotion, and spirit.

Here are some of the benefit of Play:
1) Play can Inspire you to think Differently
2) Play can bring Greater Joy into your Life
3) Play is known to Reduce Stress
4) Play on a regular basis can Increase Longevity
5) Play can reduce Struggle, Conflict, and Worry
6) Play can increase your Sense of Lightness
7) Play can stimulate the Imagination, Curiosity, and Creativity
Play reduces the risk of Hypertension and Decreases Depression
9) Play can greatly Enhance your Energy Levels
10) Play can provide you with an Opportunity to Take Risks

So what play do you have in mind? What is your favorite? Make sure you put some play in your daily activities while you still can not just in your words or thought.

To me it doesn't matter what you play what is important is who we play with and that we have fun with it. Let's play "jack en poy" or "scissors , paper , rock"? Sinong matalo syang unggoy.

Have a fun filled play and games.
