For a while, the game was an escape. With every escape, it can give you a false sense of reality when you return to IRLand. I took this in mind and have been since I begun. RP is a great medium to express ideas, thoughts, things you may not be brave enough to share with others around you. Eventually, these things can be shared in less cringe*, "I play other lives on computers," sort of way. For me, it assisted in my writing and attention to detail exponentially.
Opportunities make themselves known when you share your creativity with others.
