Approaching 80, Now What For My New Games Future?

When I was about 18, I didn’t think I’d live much beyond my mid-60’s. But, I did, and coming up on 80, I should retire, right? I might if I didn’t still derive joy from seeing people get turned on by playing New Games. There have been few things I’ve found that bring such joy from such a simple activity. It still is inspiring to see people who were not able to play much or at all as children because of too much competition or being made fun of, get so much fun out of playing New Games. Seeing these people open up and unfold during play is very rewarding to me. How could it not be?

So, I’ll likely go on as long as I’m able. I tried retiring but didn’t like it. I found myself walking around my flat wondering what to do. While I have gotten involved with environmental and political groups and causes, all very meaningful and important, I still derive personal joy playing New Games. Some people think I’m a kid in an adults body, especially when playing the games. That’s true, I do feel an energy that is young in nature.
