Haiku-A-Day December Challenge #20: Exploring New Games

For the last three years, I've intentionally spent time writing and sharing a Haiku-A-Day for the month of December. The first two years I exchanged a daily Haiku privately with willing friends, mostly through text and email. Last year I wrote and shared each Haiku on my blog. Throughout this process, I've discovered that the practice of noticing and reflecting through writing a Haiku grounds me, provides with with a certain kind of peace, assists me with better practicing gratitude, and helps me better navigate this "hurry up" world. This year my goal is the same as last year: to pen and publish a daily Haiku on my blog throughout December. 

Haiku-A-Day December Challenge #20: 
Exploring New Games

I was recently invited to play Dungeons and Dragons with some good friends. Although doing an activity like this is way out of my comfort zone, and I have no idea what I’m doing, I decided to give it a try. Fortunately, I have understanding friends who guided me through creating a character and beginning the game. 

I don't really know the right terminology for Dungeons and Dragons. I still really don’t know what I’m doing, but I did have fun. It gives me new perspectives of those who play the game. 

Honestly, it’s much more sophisticated than I ever imagined.
