Role-Playing-Reality?

Posted on November 14th, 2005 in Daily Observations |

All of a sudden, the myst began to fade.

You rubbed your eyes, while dusting off the remaining sand from your body.

You look around your landing spot. You see nothing familiar. Your eyes starts to digest what they see, and it’s taking you sometime to make sense between reality and hallucination.

Then someone came up and trigger off your first conversation. You answered like a dumb ass, since you have no idea what’s going on, and it’s better to do what you are told, and answer what you are questioned. Slowly, one thing led to another, as you began to familiarize with the footsteps and start meeting new individuals, you start to blend in. You also began to learn how to adapt yourself into the new community, speaking their language and acting like one of them.

After you are done with the basics, someone with higher authority will come into the picture and start calling the shots.

This is where you make your stand, you are either for or against this authority. The journey begins here.

Whichever stand you took, you will meet with 81 obstacles before you eventually complete the final test that really proved you are “loyal” to that decision from the beginning. Depending on how many obstacles you overcome and how you overcome them, your final result will be different accordingly.

However, when you are done with the 81 obstacles, you will reach the “Happy Ending” part, but there’s no such thing as happy ending. The real joy comes from the entire journey, and depending on how you’ve chosen your journey, how you’ve overcome your obstacles, whether you cheat along the way, bribed some authorities to move forward, used despicable schemes to achieve your objectives, or simply by using your charisma and integrity for the common good- hence your joy is defined. The “Happy Ending” is but a fraction of a second, while the journey is a lifetime.

Hmm…and don’t forget, before you start, select a nice name! :-)

Do I get to roll a set of good attributes?

Interesting analogy, just like the birth of a child, you don't get to choose what you bring to this world.

Yes, you get a 6-sided dice.

Pick-and-roll!
