How Playing Has Saved My Life
…before I hit m thirties, I was pretty serious about school and life…
…I didn’t really have enough fun…
…I was working a lot, and that really was all I was doing most of the time…
…when I got in my mid thirties I moved in with a family that had a little girl who was 3 years old…
…she loved to play!
…and living with her I started to play again…
…now I play everyday with my husband and my son…
…playing has saved my life…
…I realize that working all the time is not the life that I wanted…
…and now I live the life that I do want…
…and it’s fun!

I was a lot like you, Meylysa, in that I was “all work and no play.” I thought I wanted the so-called professional career, complete with tailored suits and three-inch heels. And I did do that, for awhile. Then I got married and had children. It was time to trade in the heels for sneakers and the tailored suites with jeans and a t-shirt. It’s amazing how it added years to my life. It felt GREAT! I think if I had kept on the corporate path, I would have quickly become bored and depressed. Thanks for an awe-inspiring post!
Thanks for the thoughtful comment Susan…
…I think work-a-holism is pretty common in American culture, and when I lived in Taiwan it was there too…
…so glad I’m enjoying life now and that you are too!!!
