The greatest battle of all is simply... Life.
This is no child's game. This is the big one -
the Super Bowl - the Game of all games.
The rules of Life are unwritten and unknown.

She can call the game at any time - for any reason.
The penalties in the Game are completely arbitrary -

The Judge is silent.

"You can never win," comes the answer,
"So just take pleasure in playing the Game."

Our only path to happiness lies in being open
to receiving whatever life throws at us -
with Gratitude. Have NO Expectations of life.
