Day Off

So I get Wednesday off and usually have nothing to do. I don't have a vehicle to go anywhere so I sit around, play video games, clean the place, and post on here. My wife asked me one time why guys like video games so much and it came to me. I have read John Eldridge's "Wild at heart." It's pretty good. He says how guys need adventure and at the moment she asked that I realized that for many this is our battlefield. This is our adventure where we go and save the princess (In my case Zelda right now "Twilight Princess"). I really am not anti-video games but I wonder what danger this could cause by living out false realities and not having our own personal adventures. I remember people always saying don't play video games play a board game and get to know people. I don't think they realize though how many people we meet playing video games. Now often interaction won't go much past the game but there have been instances where I have made friends over them. Certain games are made for interaction like many on the Wii. I like this system a lot because it has cleaner games and is active and fun for any age. Ok done rambling. I'll post something better soon.
