"Tell me, what will you do with your one wild and precious life?" Mary Oliver

Games have a goal; life doesn't. Life has no objective. This is what the existentialists call the "anxiety of freedom."... This is why games are such a popular form of procrastination. And this is why, on reaching one's goals, the risk is that the reentry of existential anxiety hits you even before the thrill of victory―that you're thrown immediately back on the uncomfortable question of what to do with your life.
