We are under siege by negativity in our country. Every human activity is seen to contain an insolvable problem rather than an anticipated hurdle to get over and past. Mayhem, mischief and madness dominate the media. Politicians see war lurking around every corner. The Earth itself is trembling.
We are in urgent need of positivity...and so I have invented a game. Here is the background of the game:
GENESIS 1:31 "And the Lord saw all that He had made and behold it was VERY GOOD"
The words VERY GOOD have a combined 8 letters. The number 8 has different meanings in different cultures around the world, and, interestingly, they all relate to the elements of a good life, including:
Perfection
Infinity
Love
Friendship
Prosperity
To the Chinese, double fortune
To the Buddhists, long life
To the Egyptians, cosmic order.
The name of my game is VERY GOOD...what else?. Each time during the day that you recognize and acknowledge something very good in your life, you earn a letter. For the first one, you earn a V, for the second an E, for the third an R...and so on. Do it 8 times in one day, spell out VERY GOOD, and you're a winner! Your prize: the difficulty you will have the rest of the day saying anything negative, listening to anything negative...borderline impossible.
Good game, yes?
You have a V.
