I have been playing CHESS for a long a time & many times I have lost
queen & also have exchanged which is usual. Queen being one of the
most powerful piece in the Game Of Chess has been a favourite option to
choose to turn a pawn into a 'piece'.
But what happened one day
while playing the game is that the opponent lost his queen and quit. I
have seen many people resigning or quitting & leaving in between the
game solely because they have lost the Queen as if there is no other
piece in the game. And this tendency increases especially in case this
happens in the earlier stages og the game. A fewer play in these
conditions - to win. It's my feeling when a player plays without queen,
he plays with real instinct. He understands true value of a piece - of
each of the pieces taking himself above the 'piece value'. The player
really applies all his best strategies to win.
Sometimes he wins
and many times he looses but there is one thing in this case that he
will take, Satisfaction. Satisfaction of being in the game - the war -
the life.
Yes, that is what i want to say . Correlating chess with
life has been a matter if philosophy & observation &
understanding. Let me relate Queen to the strength of life, the
essential part, the most important or say success (for many) and King to
the Aim, purpose of life. Life contains many other values and strengths
& they are other pieces of the game, not having the same strength
as Queen but unique in nature. Loosing piece can be understood as what
we call as 'hard Luck'.
In life hardest luck comes sometimes.
Now, it becomes the choice of a player - the begining of the game or the
end. No, it can't be the end because the game is won by mating KING and
NOT QUEEN. In fact , it's the beginning of the war-the game. It's when
we come with the best strategies. It's when we put our strengths and
skills on the edge of our own examination. It's teh time we must not
QUIT. It's the time to enjoy the game - the LIFE. After all, BEST OF ONE'S COMES IN THE WORST.
