Life Likened To A Game.
You know people have always said life is a game and your win
is usually an outcome of how you play it. But literally life could be likened to
a game of Candy Crush. I know this may not be comprehensible to some people,
but some masters at this game may actually understand how. Let’s look at the
analysis from my point of view. In a game of Candy crush you have the
following:
- A target
- 5 lives or chances in one play with which you are to achieve the target
- Bonuses that you have to pay for
- Ability to ask friends for help.
Just like in the game, it is
expected of every individual to have a target, be it long-term or short-term or
as stated by the creator of the said game, hard or super hard level. I have
been on a level of candy crush to meet a target that may look simple but could
be tricky and even while I was still at it today, someone said, “just
leave that level already” I replied, “I actually can’t just leave the
level until I meet the target, because I don’t plan to stay here for life.”
Same applies in real life, you can’t just work out on your dreams or discard
them because it isn’t working as expected at that moment. Leaving one dream for another is
not going to make the next dream easier.
I see the 5 chances or lifelines in the game as opportunities. Opportunities that come, that we encounter and have but then, when we don’t really know how to use them well, they may run out. But that is perfectly normal because we aren’t perfect, we are mere mortals.
The only mistake we tend to make is quitting after we think we have exhausted our chances. The game grants another opening for a refill of lifelines, so does life grant us other opportunities that if we are not so stuck on our past failures, we may actually see and use.
However, we should also know that opportunities don’t last forever and they don’t just appear, you need to work and wait for it.
