Showed my dad. He threw my phone.

4/20 Edited to

... Read moreSharing games with family can lead to some unexpected reactions. In my experience, showing my dad a mobile game triggered a surprisingly intense response—he actually threw my phone! It made me realize how differently older generations perceive gaming compared to younger ones. The screenshots I showed him included some intense moments like "DEFEAT" and "RESTART," which perhaps made the game seem frustrating or inexplicable to him. I believe this incident highlights the gap in understanding between gamers and non-gamers, especially when it comes to mobile games with complex mechanics or competitive elements. The words captured in the images, such as "GAME OF RICINS" and "REVIVE," suggest the game involved rivalries and comebacks, typical of battle or strategy games that might look confusing or even upsetting to a casual observer. For anyone encountering similar situations, it's helpful to explain the context of the game before sharing it. Describing the objective, controls, and what the on-screen terms mean can ease misunderstandings. Gaming has become a massive part of many people's lives, but bridging that knowledge gap can make sharing these experiences more enjoyable for everyone involved. In my case, the phone survived the incident, but the story became a funny memory that opened a dialogue about gaming in our family. If your loved ones react strongly to mobile games, try to engage them by inviting them to play or watch together—it might turn their frustration into curiosity and fun.

But God showed you who they were tho…
People often hide who they really are behind likable personalities and saying the right things, but you can tell a tree by its fruit if you pay attention. I’ve messed up a lot by questioning my discernment, and letting my love for people cloud my judgment. I'd end up getting my feelings hurt

Jesus showed up in a vision after I asked ….
I grew up in church, but I didn’t have a real relationship with Christ. So after high school, when I was introduced to spiritualism, I got pulled in. It sounded powerful, beautiful even. I believed in a “higher power,” prayed to ancestors, and rejected organized religion especially Christianity.
