No Gambling

Mel,

If you want to be with me,
there can be no gambling.

Games are fine.

But, games should just be for learning.

Games should be an environment
where you can fail and be safe,
with no consequences,
and learn from the mistakes.

Betting imposes a consequence,
                                                                which introduces punishment,
                                                                for mistakes.

                                                                There should be no punishment.

                                                                Because, it's ok to make mistakes.
