In all very serious games, you either win or lose, even if there is a draw, there will be penalty to ascertain the winner. Sometimes, you have a lucky game in which you thought you would lose due to the person you are playing with. You thought you would lost the game, yet you won the game. In some games, you have many opportunities to win but you could not make use of it. In other games, it was a narrow escape game, you were losing the game till the last minute when victory came in to greet you.
In some games, you lost the game, but you are still happy that you could even go for that particular game. In some, you let your hopes get so high, you think you will be the shining star, but everything crashes as you lost the game, you go home dejected and wondering what happened. Sometimes, what you predict will be In the game would not be there. Sometimes you know you will lose the game and you do, sometimes, you know you will win the game and you win.
Another one is during the penalty shootout, or when it’s that particular kick or shoot that finalizes if you will win or lost. Sometimes, when you kick the ball among it to the net especially a place you do not want the goal keeper to get to quick, there are two things involved, either it goes into the net, or out of the net. When in a game of swimming, you are either the fastest to make you the first or the slowest to make you the last. Sometimes, skill does not matter again.
In some and almost all games, you are either in the game or on the bench which means, you are either in or out, either fulfilling destiny or waiting for your time with different possibilities in your mind. In some games, some certain unqualified people would be chosen and they would succeed and make waves. Some people would not even be known and in just one game, the whole world will know about them. That is life. Sometimes. When you hold a fragile glass too hard, it breaks, when you hold an egg too tight, it breaks. When you hold a loaf of bread too tight, it crushes. Somehow, that is life. The certain rule is do not hold to tight, play flexible with hopes and be happy always. Be positive about what you do.
