Why all these lectures? Moreover, games and fun are that important time when we relax, rest our soul and body, give free rein to our spirit. The photo collection "The Power of the Game" by legendary photographer Steve McCurry perfectly illustrates this blissful state when problems fade into the background, and a person is simply happy with what he is doing at the moment. Let's all play!
