Some of you may know that I, SaintGermain, am a bit of a scholar, a man of the world you might say.
My travels throughout Azeroth, the Outlands and the mysterious realm of RL have brought to me many realizations about life lessons, many universal truths you might say, that I feel the need to share with you.
Over the next several weeks, I will give you my perspective of life lessons, 33 to be exact, learned while adventuring in the WoW universe and how they may apply to you when you when you choose to venture into the ominous zone of RL.
Rest assured that this will be fun and might even make you see WoW in a whole new light. And, as life, will be presented in no particular order.
Yes, this WoW is a fun game, and yes, it’s a place to have fun and enjoy yourself. It’s great to slay a few monsters, get some gear and make pretty dresses.
And it is also a place to learn about yourself and RL if you are willing to see it that way. It’s always been fun for me to see the macrocosm and microcosm in all things so why not in WoW?
What life lessons you ask? Well that’s for me to type and you to read whenever you like. Just know this: they are WoW based and applicable in RL right now.
So hold on to your philosophical hats my fine internet friends.
Things are about to get interesting.

Fail? Only because it might have been better to include the first one in this post.
Any who… I look forward to reading them. I’ve also noticed some microcosms and look forward to seeing how you interpret some.
I almost used the economy in world of warcraft for a thesis in a class on capitalism - but I suck and procrastination demanded something easier.

Looking forward to your observations, I’ve had a few of my own as well - I think that having these insights is part of the total mage experience
To the person responding fail w/o giving it a chance, I retort: No U. To not even give the man a chance to really begin to speak his mind is highly immature, and unenlightened.

Ah deek…
You might need these more than you realize.
And yes you have your right to your own opinion… even if it is ill-informed and impetuous.
Reminds me of Leroy Jenkins…
Thanks for your comment and have a nice day.
