Scrabble

There's a wonderful story somewhere written by a guy about something that happened when he was a ten-year-old child. He was playing Scrabble with some older siblings, and as he lost money and properties to the other players, his throat began to constrict, and he began to feel such fear and anxiety that he could barely breathe. Suddenly, he realized that it was all just a game, and there was no reality to it. It was like having an enlightenment experience. He jumped up, exhilarated, and yelled, in essence, "It's just a game!" He then began laughing riotously, and ran off leaving everyone totally perplexed. No one had any idea what had happened, but the boy left the game, went outside, and rolled around in the grass laughing and giggling with joy. Such is the power of mind and the power of seeing through projections of mind
