π BEING PLAYFUL WITH LIFE π
.
Life is not meant to be a struggle, it's meant to be a playful and joyful ride ππΌ
.
When things get tough, you might have a tendency to take things seriously.. You might get rigid wanting things to be in a specific way. Then you might get upset if they're not that way. You might get angry, drop everything off and withdraw..
.
Doesn't sound fun, does it?
.
Things can feel like very difficult, yes, but adding playfulness to the situation, only lightens it.. The only thing is, Ego doesn't like it. It loves being right, being serious so whenever you are resistant to being playful and having fun, know that that's your Ego..
.
Things will become easier as you do this because you're lightening the energy of the density you're feeling.
.
Especially if you're someone constantly working on yourself, growing, letting go of conditioning, following your path etc, its easy to forget adding playfulness into this growth βΊοΈπ It becomes a serious task, to be who you truly are.. Then you build an image of who you think you are, what you think you should do. Now that you're awaken, you have to be in a certain way, no fun allowed, sorry π
.
I'm not saying jump up and down, have fun and forget all responsibilities, be aware of what needs to get done and be silly. Adding play and humour into your daily life goes a long way β¨

Aaron and I have fun, joke around most of the time making fun of parts of ourselves we're not totally comfortable with, lovingly obviously π When humour comes in, that area stops being a sensitive subject and has no charge anymore..
.
Few ideas to connect with your playfulness π
- Play your favourite childhood game with a friend or your lover. Hide and seek, playing puzzle, it, hangman, charades, whatever it is. You're never too old to play your childhood game ππΌ
- When an opportunity to do impressions show up, take that opportunity like its the last thing you're doing in this life. Let go of who you think you are and give that impression everything you got.. Because you're not you anymore in that moment, you're the person you're imitating.. Works great if the person you're with is in their Ego, gets them right back to who they truly are π
- Grab a friend, ask each other questions like 'Would you rather not speak at all or not hear at all?' And you have to choose one βΊοΈ I play this with Aaron and he really enjoys making it hard π It's great game to use your imagination and get to know each other β¨

You are born playful. Somewhere along the line, you might have forgetten that part of you that plays with life. That part never dies. It waits for you to remember patiently so you can come out and play again π
