" The chessboard is the world,
The pieces are the phenomena of the universe,
The game are what we call the laws of nature,
And the player on the other side is hidden from us "
~ Thomas Huxley ~
CHESS is a recreational and competitive board game played on a square chequered chessboard with 64 squares arranged in an eight-by-eight square between two players who each control sixteen pieces.
Chess is mysterious as is life, everyone has their own ideas. Every move you make can either bring you an advantage or a disadvantage. Even acting upon your wisest/planned decision can bring a negative outcome. Pieces must keep moving. Wins and losses are a part of life. Sacrifices must be made at some point. Expect the unexpected. When making a decision that wasn't well thought out and have lost something because of it, well it teaches to think twice next time, to be more vigilant. Mistakes are part of our fates. In this fate of ours, our life, our game doesn't end til' the king is trapped/ we die. Keep playing. As you lose you ironically get better, once you begin winning and continue to do so, you will keep yourself better. But even when losses come regardless your best position in the game or life, you accept them as the human you are. That increases your rating in life in many delightful ways!
