Life Happens

I love chess and enjoy studying and playing it. I like chess people. I particularly like winning and not losing. But there is always so much more going on in my life.

In Jesus' parable of the sower, some people begin and forget. Some people start fast but quit when it gets difficult. Some people just have too many other things on their plate. And only a few stick with it until they succeed.

I think chess is the same. And I am a person with too much on my plate. I have a house, a job, and a family. I also study history, religion, economics, science, and politics.

Life is good. But with a life like mine. I should not expect my chess to be good.

Chess is a little eight by eight board, with clear rules for only six different kinds of pieces in two colors. How hard can that be?

Ha, Ha Ha, Ha Ha Ha, Ha Ha Ha Ha. "Whew!"
