Great example, David, and it leads to many thoughts. One thought is it sounds like the key here is to set expectations wisely. For example, loosening the grip on how a game should be played can lead to laughter and discoveries. But lowering our expectations on how we treat each other may lead to rudeness or disrespect.

I love that insight. It is indeed both setting and letting go of certain expectations that led to the fun. Excellent addition David!

Thank you David. I have moments when I do expect someone to act a certain way or I find myself thinking "why did they do that?" and then I'm the one frustrated, hurt, or upset. I've also had moments when I don't have a single expectation and I see how fun it is. I'm aware now it's with certain people. Hmm...interesting.

I truly appreciate this reflection today.
