Candy crush is a game that is played by many today, from house wives, to students, workers and grannies. It can become addictive, I know how many food were burnt, people who passed their bus stop, people we failed to do their important task and e.t.c. I also play it as I have up to six different types on my tab. Recently,i started meditating of life lessons that Candy crush can teach and this what I came up with.
1) Life is lived in stages. You start from the very beginning and progress to the next stage and the next.
2) Celebrate each stage you complete, even though each completed stage opens you to a new one.
3) Some stages are so easy; enjoy the joys that comes with it.
4) Some stages of life will be really challenging, you will have to try up to ten, twenty, thirty of fifty times before you overcome it. Be patient, there are many valuable lessons that you may have not come across that that stage wants you to learn.The beautiful thing about it is that you will have an AHA moment once you learn it and the victory that comes with overcoming that stage is sweeter and long lasting.
5) The funny thing about a difficult stage is sometimes what you have exulted all your moves on many occasions without your desired results may take just few moves to overcome on your next try and you will be like wow! But you will never experience it if you give up.
6) Until you understand the rules or laws guiding each stage, no matter how fantastic and awesome your moves are, you will never make it through.
7) The stage teaches you patience, paying attention and constant effort.
8) Remember to take a break after trying a few unsuccessful times.
9) when you are thinking or don't know what move to make, the game suggest a move but note it is not by force to follow it's suggestion. The responsible of accepting or refusing it's
suggestion is entirely yours. So also in life when you are thinking or don't know what step to take people (your loved ones, friends, families, pastors, imans etc), environments,what you see (movies) and read, and your inner self will suggest moves for you to make. But remember whichever one you decide to take, the outcome of that
choice (good or bad) is yours alone.
Do have a lovely weekend.
