Two of my favorite video games are the Final Fantasy and the Kingdom Hearts series. They are part of a popular video game genre known as RPG (role playing game).
One of the key elements of a RPG is something known as a party. A party is a group of characters that goes on an adventure in the game. That concept is very much analogous to life being which we too are on a journey and many people are along for the ride. However a crucial point to a party in a RPG is that you can’t go through the entire game with the same party.
Different scenarios requires a different combination of characters. You may need a character that can open a door to a certain level, one of them may posses a key battle element, or simply one character may be cooler to have around than the other. In any case, life requires a slot swap just like a RPG because certain situations cause for certain people. It may be someone holding the group back so they have to get swap out or it may be someone who has the extra push you needed so they must get swapped in. An alternation is always required because life is a multi layered experience constantly increasing in difficulty.
Another key element for a party is a synchronization bonus. Meaning that a specific character combination causes a significant power increase that greatly benefit the player. Life’s synchronization bonus is most associated with people who come together that is on the same frequency/mission. When you have the extra support of knowing everyone around you shares the same mindset , it gives you (the player) an increased boost in ability to conquer uncharted territory.
Just like a RPG life has many roles for us to fulfill. It doesn’t matter the role we take as long as it is the right one for us and may we fulfill that role alongside the right people.
