Sometimes we take the spectator role in the games of life.  Sitting in an arena, thousands of people jump to their feet, screaming, jumping and waving white towels furiously above their heads cheering their team to victory.

I play on small courts.  Games that I can win, like scrabble, and games of fun, like cards or dominos with others.

Some days I fold my cards and play out.  No betting, no screaming, no running around with a ball.  Like today, I just let myself be a spectator and enjoy being in the crowd watching the brilliant game of life.

She is sitting beside me, thrilled that we can sit together, and grabs me and yells: What a FABULOUS Game!
