If this is a game.... how do you play it?

You cheat?, you are jealous?, or do you play it like we try in real life, to be nice, be honest?, be faithful? be creative? be happy? share the good? have a good heart? help the needy? share your clothes? help a newbie with their looks? be who you are? or fake it?

is just a game? does this mean you have to hurt others? cheat? talk dirt behind your back? is all this allowed in game?

But I refused to cheat or be fake, or be jealous of a top designer, or be jealous of someones pretty avie, or be jealous because such and such has more lindens than me, or be jealous because I can't make a good scripted shoes, or a great script, or a great build....

Cheat with 20 guys? would I want to do that in Real? or is it just a game and I can do anything?

real or no real...there is a human being behind this computer trying to make the game as positive as possible, without jealousy...without hurt

I am not talking about anyone, just I want to understand why people have different attitudes. but is life.. and life is difficult to understand...

I guess I have to accept those attitudes. Move on if I don't like them, accept them and be happy and continue when someone hurts my feelings...

I try my best not to hurt others, I am human, and make mistakes, but I try to help, be there when someone needs me, I know, I have done that... but if I had hurt someone..

I am deeply sorry...

Palomma... *HUGS* :)

To me, SL is a game the same way RL is a game. Both have their trials, their goals, and their mysteries. We either seek these out ourselves, or they fall along our path. How you choose to play either of those games is up to you alone. And of course with either game of life, it is always helpful to find those that love and appretiate you, even when you aren't perfect. :)
