• When Adults Unwillingly Unplug

  I have a silly side. It comes out quite easily with my kids and grandkids. There’s a sense of safety there that doesn’t make me uncomfortable if I’m foolish. Goofy. Un-adult.

• Playing For More Than Fun

  Playing is fun. No matter what your age. Playing releases endorphins that make us feel good. It allows friendly competition without fear of serious consequences. Except for those few who lose sight of what a game is. Then there’s the laughter that often comes with playing. Anywhere from tickled giggles to deep belly laughs. The…
