day twenty-two
I come from a big games playing family so here’s a little game for you. We always called it the furniture game, and similar to the prompt from Day 2, I’d like to invite you to take an emotion you would like more of in your life and write about it in a new way.
The Furniture Game describes something – it may be an object, or an emotion, or even a person – through what they would be like in different forms. So take your wished-for emotion – it may be love or joy or happiness or security – and complete the following sentences, If XX was an XX it would be a XX.
For example, If joy was a breakfast, it would be fresh croissants and champagne… Here is the list of things to imagine for your emotion:
If xx was a piece of furniture, it would be…
If xx was a pair of shoes, it would be…
If xx was a book, it would be…
If xx was a landscape, it would be…
If xx was a house, it would be..
If xx was food, it would be…
If xx was a perfume, it would be…
If xx was a vehicle, it would be…
If xx was a job, it would be…
If xx was an animal, it would be…
You can keep going endlessly, but this is probably enough to keep you busy for at least six minutes!
