No fun allowed So I’ve always had a keen love for gaming and this has expanded from my childhood years to my early adult life. I was but a young lad of a few years old when I discovered gaming and since then I’ve been fortunate enough to share this hobby with my adult self but, like a Shakespearian tragedy, I’ve lost that love and potentially for good. I’ve slowly realised that playing through a game such as Horizon Forbidden West and Bloodborne, that I could be doing something beneficial instead, such as browsing jobs and compiling research on topics of interest. Spending time with my family and more importantly, growing up.
It’s that I’ve become older and my interests have focused on the future. Potentially pursuing my dream job and building a family one day, I’ve realised that my interests as a child was to enjoy life and not worry about paying the bills or looking after my loved ones. As I’ve grown to a 24-year-old man it’s time I put aside what was once cherished memories and that I treasure it forever, but I focus more on building that stable future.
Perhaps one day I can pass on this love and memories to my children and regale them with my tales of how I spent time playing through such marvellous games, such as FIFA and it defined my childhood, as it could very well theirs. Today, however, I seek to build that future and build my happiness, whilst forever loving my memories of gaming and that is why I have sold my Nintendo Switch and Xbox Series S. To leave my childhood, in the past and focus on my future.Shahzai
