The "Game of Life"

No, I'm not talking about the board game. What I am talking about though is the life that we live and the game we are currently playing.

More than likely, it's not going to end the way we ideally would like it to. That, oh so, "picture perfect" life that we constantly dream and wish about. We don't always get the job we want. We don't always get the girl or guy we want. We never end up with everything we desire.

What we do get though, is beat the fuck up. 

It knocks us to the ground.. constantly. Time after time. Again and again. And a lot of us are left wondering, what we did to deserve these problems, these heartaches, these obstacles.

Well, I believe, that it's the way the weak are weeded out. It's the way that allows the strong to rise to the top. It's the way, that allows those people, who are willing to continue battling, to earn what they deserve.

The strong are those people, who give everything they've got and are shoved to the fucking ground , time after time. Again and again. Just to get right back up.

They get back up knowing, that at some point, they are going to get knocked down again. And they will, no matter how painful the situation, no matter how much it hurts, no matter how much they seem like they want to just say, "fuck it" get back up and keep fighting.

I believe that is the difference in people in this world. Those who are afraid to get back up and those who are willing to endure, time after time, again and again, the pain and suffering life brings us. 

Those people are the real winners in "The Game of Life" 

Who are you going to be?
