Hi everyone!

Greetings to you all my friends from the steem Venezuela community. I'm so excited to be putting in my entry on this amazing topic which discuss on something crucial which we are missing out daily as we grow older. All thanks to ma'am @inspiration I am able to share with you my thoughts. Well done ma'am.

Em... play. an undeniable fact about human nature. As toddlers we generally developed that instinct to play. This couple to the fact that before a kid is being born, her room is full with a vas number of toys. This goes on to show us that play is a natural something we are introduced to when we arrive this world.

There's a lot of misconception about play, in such a way that the culture of play is slowly grinding away from hour childrens especially the children of the 21st century. Parents see play as unhealthy for their kids and will rather preoccupied them with something else which sometimes exhaust these kids.

Notwithstanding children in the rural areas still experiences this habit of play, as there are less deepened into technology and play naturally with their pears in the environment. This does not only feel emotionally satisfying, but it also builds them intellectually.

Coming to us adults. Nowadays, our lifestyle have shifted from how it use to be to the 9 to 5:00 clock. We have allowed our work schedule consume us in such a way that we no longer have time for ourselves or even to hang out with our peers.

I personally doesn't have that much time as I wish I could to do something crazy enough as I am as well preoccupied with life, bills, tickets and lot more. Nevertheless I still managed to find time on some weekends and play football with my peers.

Playtime!

Don't be a workaholic,
Take a break, it's no big deal.

Let's play a game or two,
Have some fun, it's overdue.

Kick a ball, build a sandcastle,
Read a book, or sing a little.

Whatever it is that makes you smile,
Just take a moment, for a while.

Life's too short to stress and strain,
So let's play and entertain.

Let's laugh and joke, and have a blast,
Playtime's here, it's gonna last!

The more I get older, the more I miss the old good time when we were just kids and rooming the streets with our peers. Society is shaping us a new way to leave and forgetting away the old playful culture. Irrespective of the situation, no matter what, I will find time to play at least for a while.

In conclusion, play is not merely a recreational activity; it is a cornerstone of human development. It is essential for cognitive, social, emotional, and physical growth. By prioritizing play in our lives, we are investing in our own well-being and the well-being of future generations.
