I wish adult playing was as universal as children playing. 

I think we've dangerously discounted the notion of "play" - even in video games etc., we've turned play into something that has to be measured by its output and achievements rather than for its own sake.

a friend of mine who used to work for burning man has written a ton on the power of play / what she calls 'permission zones'

I can't tell if the pendulum is swinging back, or I've just curated my social feeds really well because I've been seeing more people talk about these topics.  Hard to know but we can at least try to live our lives prioritizing play and creativity.
