Christmas afternoon. If there are abuelos, they suggest going to the movies. Young people have time to play poker. We kept a big surprise in our pocket, locked in a small bag. It’s a Pandora’s box. She is both a savior and a danger. It’s called El Juego de la Familia. It consists of 100 cards and a die. Unfortunately, his family might end up talking about it… Which family member do you think suffered in silence on one occasion? Could you answer which book changed your life? What positive things have you learned from your family? Or be honest about what adding one of the people there is? Would talking about these themes make this afternoon or last Christmas gathering memorable?
The School of Life (The School of Life) defines itself as an international organization dedicated to teaching emotional skills for leading a fulfilled life. His teaching – through books, videos, games or therapy – seeks to deepen our emotions, fears and sensations and draws on the writings of super-scientific philosopher Alain de Botton, dedicated to transforming the way we work, live and love.
The game, released in September in Castellano by the Cincotintas editorial team, has three versions. La de la familia, that usted dare no a del pocket; another equally small box to open with a couple called Connect, and a final one called 100 Questions, which in itself gives me the courage to continue opening boxes of real people with friends. The Conectar cajita is designed for “couples who want to look with new eyes,” the promotion announces. And he suggests strengthening self-esteem: “One thing that taught me is…”, as much as converting to The curious naughty girls: “If you hadn’t slept with me, I imagine you would like…”. This last card comes with advice: “Try to control yourself and maintain your curiosity instead of falling into your cells.”
Are we not talking enough or are we talking too much? Are we talking about what really matters? What do we need to do this? What are the benefits of avoiding it? How do you know without testing it? What can you offer to a game designed by an institution called none other than La Escuela de la Vida?
Cervantes inserted Quixote the story of two friends, Anselmo and Lotario. And the first beautiful woman, Camila. Wanting to prove the quality of his wife’s love, Anselmo proposed to his close friend Lotario who tried to seduce her. Camila rejected him. Happy with this result, or drunk from the game, Anselmo convinced his friend to try to achieve it one more time. Do you trust your wife’s loyalty more than your own feelings? What happened is part of literary history. It finds its origin in the shared pleasure of Hellenic culture: the pleasure of telling it is, for some, as great as the pleasure of experiencing it. Will the consequences of knowledge improve or improve our lives? That’s where this game is going. Courage, opportunity, curiosity.
For friends, this school, dedicated to promoting good coexistence and self-awareness, has also prepared 100 questions less dangerous than those asked within the family. “If you wanted to live somewhere else, where would you be?” » Or… perhaps in: “How are your political opinions evolving?” “How long does it take for you to realize?” » Faced with controversy: “Which of the people in your life would you avoid meeting and why?” is the classic: “If you only had one year in your life, what would you do?” escape or laughter constitutes, in itself, a response.
