    Not far off, actually.

    It’s like…

    You’re in bed, asleep, super peaceful. it’s great. Then you get shook awake because your parents got you a game for your birthday they think you’ll be stoked about—they’re doing what they think is best, for them. It could be Baldur’s Gate 3, it could be Daikatana, not up to you. But you can rage quit or enjoy it, helping others out on the Steam Community along the way. Once you complete it, you get to go back to bed again. That might be awesome or it might be sad, but the day ends asleep, super peaceful. It’s great.

    Then (maybe) you get woken up by your parents that got you a new game for your birthday…

      I’m a Buddhist, and I’m so confused by this analogy 😂
