Video Games, RPG's, Dungeons and Dragons

I felt like I was wasting time with games, table top, video, etc. Lots of issues there. From 2009, anyway, here goes! (feeling like I /should/ be doing something better with my time, etc.)

MEntity: What is being overlooked here is the opportunity to observe how present one is with where one IS. In your culture there is always something more tangibly-productive that one "should" be doing to account for one's Being. As an Old Soul, this is not an issue, yet your culture is pervasive in its influence, so it can seem not to be an easy position to resolve. From our perspective, this is a matter of honesty and presence. If you feel these activities are being used to escape from Being, then it may be important to explore where else you might feel you are needed and present in your life. If you feel these activities are simply a joy and a part of your freedom to choose, then it is important to simply let yourself BE in those moments. The more fully you embrace those moments, the more effective and present you will be in other areas. Practice being present where you are, and being honest with yourself about the impact of the choice to be there. For the most part, what we have seen of you is that when your presence is required or desired in other areas of your life, you simply go there. Life has not been neglected for the sake of escapist activities, so we think it might be important to consider that in your next assessments.
