The fun Game to Play

This is a fun thing to do to find out a little about you. You will use your imagination and pretend.

Here we go. Remember this is not real. I am not going to give you a house. ☺ Get out paper and write down your answers. 

Okay… 

I have decided to give you a house. Don’t ask me why, I just feel like it. You get three choices of a house. 

A small house, a large house or a medium sized house. Which will you choose? 

This house will be on an ocean, a lake or a stream. 

Choose one. 

You are happy you have your house, but I ask that you put a vase in the entry to your house. Will it be a big vase, small vase or medium vase? Choose one 

Okay, now you are in your house and you are looking out at the landscape, and you decide to go for a walk. You walk and walk and see a lovely field of flowers and sit down to admire them. As you sit you find a key. 

Do you keep the key, or leave the key? 

Next, you go off in another direction and WOW you find a dark mansion… it is kind of scary looking, there is an locked gate and lots of over grown weeds, do you go in? 

Oh, well, its time to go home now, so you walk back to the house, and go in then remember you did not inspect your new back yard. You go out the back door, and just as you go out, you see a bear. He doesn’t look very friendly. 

You may try to feed him, and you may try to get back in your house, but the door has slammed shut and now you are there with the bear. 

What do you do? 

So you are thinking and while you are thinking, the bear comes toward you. He is a BIG BEAR and he looks really mean, so you decide to move away from him. He begins to follow you. You begin to run. You see a fence.        

What do you do?

  Now that you have all the answers ready: Here is your fun evaluation:

If you chose a large house you don’t know where you are going. 

If you chose a medium house you are basically a content person 

If you chose a small house, you know exactly where you are going 

If you chose an Ocean, you don’t know where you are going, but you are going. 

If you chose a Stream -You are going with the flow - easy going 

If you chose the Lake - You are content in life 

If you chose a large vase you like to get attention 

If you chose a medium vase you are of normal ego

 If you chose a small vase, you are of little ego, and probably insecure 

If you picked up the key, you will notice when opportunity is knocking

If you went back for the key to get into the house, you are practical

If you went into the house, you are adventuress and daring, and fun loving 

If you stayed out of the house, you are cautious and/or have a regard for other people’s property.

With the bear, if you climbed the fence you believe in afterlife. 

If you did not climb the fence, you do not believe in afterlife. 

I will volunteer my answers. 

I chose a large house, ocean, large vase, I took the key, I explored that scary old house, I tried talking to the bear and feeding him. The bear did not listen and I could not get back into the door to find him any food, so I jumped that fence. 

In case you are one who jumped the fence and can’t imagine just standing there. I did have one fellow years ago with whom I played this game. He did not jump the fence. I was surprised. So, I asked are you sure? He said, “I am definitely not going to climb that fence.” When it came down to what it meant to not go over that fence, that he did not believe in an afterlife, he said, “Wow, that test is cool. I don’t believe in an afterlife.” 

When my kids were small, they got to play this game and they picked various things. My oldest one had the same answers as mine. My middle son picked a medium house and a lake
