Life is like a game.

You roll your dice and
-hope-
that you will get ahead and not be sent backwards.
You want to be the first to finish,
the one who is holding all the cards,
the one who got the most out of the game.

Life is not a game.

Life is not about who finished first, because really, who remembers that.
Life is not about who is holding all the cards, because one person’s hands cannot hold everyone's cards.
Life is about how much you got out of the game. Not Monopoly dollars, or red plastic cherries, but how what you did affected everybody else.

Life is about how you are remembered.
