I don't know why. A mystery of modern science, such as will never be known the answer to.
I figured I'd talk about another deep subject that I consider highly important in this post...but then I realized no one cares about soda in the way I do.
Probably. The likelihood that I'm the craziest person on earth seems an arrogant thought. Not to mention prideful.
So yeah. I've been 6 days without videro games. Except a game of virtual checkers I played on my Zune whilst the family was watching The Mentalist. Not that I don't like the show, but I really wanted to play a game of checkers. It's a game I've always liked...never play it. XD
So, now that I've (temporarily. Voluntary Ban lifts tomorrow) been without my "thing" for a week, what do I think?
I think I was too dependent on games to add fulfillment in my life. Now that I've been a week without them, I can see that feelings worthlessness or stupidity went away playing them.
Escapism, in a small way. Instead of shoving my problems into the back of my mind while being a virtual hero, I had to think about them. A little, at least. It's not like I went into a full digital retreat. Just replaced my "normal" activities with guitar playing and reading.
I actually kinda like it. I've been a bit more creative, and possibly more intelligent...though my stupidity is something I would blame on myself.
In fact, all of this is. I can't foist my laziness onto video games. I choose to play them, I choose to shove my problems into the dark little corner of my mind (my reasoning ability has been there since childhood).
So what's the point? It's like...putting on sunglasses in a dark room. They obscure your vision, but only because you let them.
So now, videro games have their place in my life. Kinda. I'm looking forward to cracking open FF7 tomorrow. But I definitely have something to think about.
I wonder if I'm an addict? *eye twitch*
I know what (or should I say Who?) should fill my life. I know the only thing that can...But do I really? If I "truly" knew Him, would I want to do anything else but worship Him? Would anything take as much time in my life as my relationship with Him?
Dreams...my life is a dream. I'm slowly realizing it may actually be a nightmare.
Requisite spooky/cliche` ending: checkeroo, little Jimmy.
