Monopoly
Monopoly. Which monopoly piece are you? How about the properties, which property have you been relegated to? In the game Monopoly, the roll of the dice determines where you get to move on the board and in agreeing to play the game, you agree to the games rules and in the end, the clear indicator of winning the game is the person who has the greatest number of properties, houses and money. Yesssss! I invite you to look at the first couple of questions more closely. What if someone else has played you like a game piece and relegated you to life on a board of their creation and you have gone round and round their board and sometimes landed in jail without a get out free card because you had no clue that you were on a loop, on a loop, on a loop? The money monster monopoly does just that, he monopolizes time, energy, money on things that keep you in jail, on a loop, choiceless and trapped with the offerings of the board creator...don't ask for permission to do something differently, listen to your own creative voice and choose. If you feel stuck, ask who's life is it anyway and when you decide it's yours, what will you do to get out of the loop?
