As of yesterday, I’m running them both.
So, after a few weeks, I can tell you if there’s anything else, at least from my own experience.
I can relate.
I have had similar feelings at times. Still do sometimes. But I think the tension between the two was much stronger when I was younger.
Truth is I don’t see that much conflict between them right now.
Hmm…I guess nowadays, for me, Risk and Virtue are sort of focusing on two very different dimensions of life.
Risk for me is about Scale. In other words, ‘How large do you want to live this life?’ ‘How many people are included in your sense of ‘The World’?’
In contrast, Virtue, for me, is about Style. ‘What values, what characteristics, and what qualities do you want to express as you live this life?’
Risk, for me, is about ‘Large’ vs ‘Small’
Virtue, for me, is about ‘Good’ vs. ‘Bad’
You can have a Small Bad life or a Small Good life.
You can have a Large Bad life or a Large Good life.
I think that combining Genesis and Hero will help with living a Large, Good life.
As for the “fun” part of it all, the virtuous expression of fun is Joy.
Hm.
So, I’d say, the more you crack the code on how your nature expresses and receives Joy, is also the more you will resolve the apparent tension between Virtue and Fun.
So if you ever make a custom for this, haha, consider including Song of Joy (and maybe Joie de Vivre, Emotions Unfettered, and Carpe Diem Ascended).
Or just play Revelation of Mind and/or Revelation of Spirit which will also accomplish all of those things.
Anyway, I wish you incredible amounts of Virtuous Fun.
