The Board Game Of Our Lives Where does one begin on the board game of our lives? Well, there's four sharp corners by which to identify, one of them is happiness designed in color yellow, another one is sadness designed in pale gray. Then there's devastation designed in color black, last but not least is hanging out designed in a purist of white. There's miscellaneous colored squares along the way with different opportunities and struggles to deal with. Some we choose and some come chosen for us. The objective of the board game of our lives is to reach the yellow sharp corner of happiness as many times as you can to reach a level of tranquility.

Munda: Thank You very much, I'm glad you loved it. Corazon: Thank You, I think we all spend to much time on those two squares, you made me think with your reply that I should have ended the poem with: It's your turn. Aimster: Thank You very much. Denise Thank You kindly, This one was fun. |
