taking a walk through the #POB environment and those that coexist here I found what seemed to me an interesting challenge, in the publication @fireguardian I leave the terms and guidelines to follow so you can take a tour of # pob-storytelling without further ado, join me on this trip!
I've never been a popular kid. I'm what you can call average: Not so many talents, but not completely worthless. I go to school everyday, I take all my classes, and I get out of school around 6PM. My days are boring as they can be, it's like I'm on a loop program for some boring video game. Maybe that's it. Maybe I'm just a second character in someone's game. Yeah, that's probably it. Someone must be having a lot of fun right now, while I'm just doing things over and over again. While I was cursing my own life, going to the bus, I notice that a group of kids were on the other side of the street, all looking at something on the floor. Normally I wouldn't care about this, but all the cool kids were there, and from the look on their faces, it didn't seem like they were making fun of anyone, nor they were boasting the new shoes they got. They faces looked like a distortion, something unnatural, something really extraordinary. So my eyes went down to what they were looking at. And never in my wild dreams I thought I would...
The Silhouette of a plane or Hopscotch was drawn right on the ground, however the way this didactic game is pronounced, the boys saw such a drawing with amazement and curiosity. Some commented and said that maybe someone just wanted to draw squared circles Some numbers, others only said that it was a riddle and that it was coded in the form of a map to be able to get to a treasure, and coming back from amazement, they really had no idea of which meant such stripes reflected on the ground accompanied by numbers, right there I knew it was my time to shine, I took a little air and took the impulse to open up, it passed between them, and when I was in front I looked at each one and told them with firmly, "I KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS AND HOW IT IS USED", and the best thing is that everyone can participate.
Solving the riddle ...
I began to detail and highlight that it was a fun game, then I explained the rules to be able to play it I told them what they had to do to win and even some tricks to be able to do it, I felt great for the first time I had all the attention that not even in the best dreams what could have had imagined.
The cherry of the cake
then among all of them and just before we returned to the bus the most popular girl approached me and told me that she had really enjoyed this fun game and that tomorrow she wanted to sit next to me in the cafeteria to continue sharing the experience. He could hardly believe it a few minutes ago he was a mortal with completely destroyed morals and a little fun life and right now he felt that he owned the world.
A great teaching
Then when I got home I couldn't help crying when I remembered those moments at my grandparents' house when together with my cousins they showed us this game, I understood how much we have lost in terms of customs and priceless moments which have been replaced by a game console one tablet, cell phone or computer, from all this I understood the importance of transcending When it's my time and teaching the value of simplicity.
