-Roll of the dice

Life is like a game of Monopoly. We get to choose who we be and who goes first. We go around searching for the things we want, and the things to avoid. We have the option of buying property and putting houses on it. We all fear about going to Jail, and losing our property. We try to trade values of ours to get the things we really want. We get rewards and we sometimes have to take chances. We have to pay bills and expenses of the city. We all go for one thing and that's "Free Parking." In the end...we all want to win. There's something we have to face and accept. The things we can't control; such as the roll of the dice. You can try your best to alter your shake, or give it a kiss for good luck. But in the end, it's fate. You can't blame others for the mistakes or what has happened in the past. All you can do is focus on yourself; on your game plan. If you don't win or have the most property, you have to have a good outlook on it all. See the good things you did, out weigh the negative with positive. You need to find something in this game of life to live for. Even if it's getting all of the Railroads, or avoiding jail. Always have good sportsmanship. What I'm trying to relate is that if we have nothing to live for. Than why bother living? If we don't have a good attitude towards life, we are just going to keep digger ourselves deeper. We need to focus on ourselves and find out what we want. We aren't playing for anyone else. We're not trying to win for anybody but ourselves. From the first roll, to the last. We are in this for ourselves. Our values might be taken away, possibly lose a turn, owe money to someone and even sit in Jail for awhile. But we need to accept the things we can't control. We can't live in the past. We must live in the present, and do everything we can to alter the future.
