Adventure Quest
Adventure quest is a game on the Internet, but I am talking about the one that is a real game in real life; and that too, the best one life can ever play in its entire lifetime. In fact, adventure is not a game to play; rather it is a way to live - better to say, an attitude to be lived. The spirit of jumping into the unknown!
From moment to moment! Every single moment! Perpetually! And perennially! The unknown is not safe. It may come out to be fatal too. Then why to invite troubles without any reason? But is life in itself, as such, safe? Isn't it the biggest unknown of all the mysteries around us in the universe?
We try to secure our cozy corners in the unfathomable vastness that otherwise tends to soak us in and eat us out of our existence. We want to keep our psychological existence intact. If that gets lost, we feel lost too! We feel safe in the coziness of our habitual homes only. And it's exactly this that adventure makes us lose in our self - the habitual homes of ours defining our identity as well as describing our personality. The spirit of adventure is the call of the vast to break the so-called secure walls of our narrow cages that we turn into our cozy corners to live safe and sound into them. We try to satisfy the urge of our adventure quest by planning adventure games, adventure holidays, adventure vacations, and adventure tours; or by organizing adventure education, a separate adventure time, outdoor adventure, jungle adventure, wild adventure, sex adventure, mystical adventure, and even as mundane things as knowledge adventure and sonic adventure too!  We play adventure games, and we play adventure quest especially; and thus do we try to satisfy the urge of our real adventure quest in life! We create an entirely new cozy corner of our whole new adventure world as different from the world of our daily routine; be it a dark adventure or be it a great adventure out of so many so-called great adventures on this planet. Thus goes the story of action adventure as well as the history of adventure sports on earth! Thus, adventure quest means the quest of living life on edge.
But why adventure quest at all? Why living life on edge? Why not play safe and be comfortable? Of course that is what the whole world is doing! Playing it safe! But the whole world is living a dull and boring life also! Rather dragging it along! And then people design a few days of adventure (that too, safety included!) holidays in order to come out of the drudgery of their morose life even if for a short while, only to go back to the same square one again!
Why is it so that safety and security in life turn it into a mechanical, robotic structure? Why does living life on edge fill it with unprecedented energy, bubbling passion, wordless joy, and a total alert & aware, but relaxed discipline through every single moment of it? The sharper the edge, the more the energy, passion, joy, awareness, discipline and relaxation; as well as the more the danger! Who will want to live in perennial danger (that too, real!) every moment of life? Only the one who loves it! One who loves its suspense! One who loves the unpredictability of even the next moment that is to come! One who is bubbling with the adventure quest inside her/him!
How can such a life be morose and boring? Never! Rather it's a game to play without bothering to win or lose, but caring enough to enjoy the game the best every moment of it, i.e., playing the best move always - every single moment. You can't afford to be slack, so you have to be ready; and you can't afford to be tense, so you have always to be relaxed. Ready and relaxed - that is what living life on edge is - a real adventure quest to play as well as to live! Have you ever gone for space adventures in the sky or anywhere else? How does one get this trait in one's personality? Is it possible, along with responding to the pressures of career in life? Do you feel things should change in life, on earth? If yes, why sit passive? Let's be in the active vanguard. Let's try to change the world! Even trying is its own fun in itself! Wanna have some bidding fun with 'Adventure Quest' on ebay auction?
