First of all, I must tell you that Bernard DeKoven is one of the loveliest humans I have had the pleasure of meeting. He has made a career of bringing play and playfulness to a world that so needs these things. In the late 1960s, Bernie wanted to make learning more fun for his 5th and 6th grade students, and so he made a game of everything possible. He has practiced and perfected what he calls "the playful path" ever since then. He is a game developer, teacher, and speaker, but above all, he is someone who sees that the human capacity for joy is closer than many of us realize. In this post, Bernie notes that it's obvious how to make life fun again, "Because the invitations are everywhere. And all we need do to make our game of life more fun is open those invitations and ourselves a little bit more up, and, from time to time, maybe just once in a while, play, help, love.
