What does fun look like to you?

Aside from the obvious damage this would cause any child, part of me loves the idea of celebrating last place. Someone has to come last, and it's not always a negative thing.
I love the fact that I'm ok at playing the piano because I always used to be shit at playing the piano
I love the fact that I have a single friend, because there's been many a time I've had none
Maybe I appreciate these things more than someone who's always had lots of friends and was naturally good at playing the piano?

I was sat in the local park recently, just 10 minutes on a bench looking at the trees and flowers and I thought "I'm so lucky that this is just 5 minutes from my house". I'm in my 50s now but I used to go there as a kid on my bike and it's always been part of my life, I didn't have fun sitting there, but for the first time in my life I really appreciated it and that meant a lot to me. The problem is you can't make yourself appreciate things, I could say to myself "I'm so lucky to live close to this park" but that means nothing, and then one day you just realise it.

fun!!! whoa, that's a question for me. i just discovered a few months ago that i never even knew at all what fun was - but when i visited my friends on the other side of the country with just a little adventure and risk taking in the most creative and liberating way i took a look in the mirror and realized right at that moment - my discovery - that - yes - i am able to have fun. "so this is what fun is like" all that's needed is to take the risk of living your dream even for just a moment. it works.

I might sound young and naive which I might be, but parting, getting drunk, waking up late in my boyfriend's appartment in Paris, wearing his oversized blouse and enjoying our coffee and croissant for breakfast.
I dont have a bf nor do I live in Paris or party often. That lifestyle is just not it when u are in med school.

This is what used to be fun for me when I was a young person (except not in France) but I don't drink or have a boyfriend any more and I have too many responsibilities to lie in bed. I just really miss the feeling.
