Life is this thing that we all live, to one degree or another. Many people however don't realize that life is a game of war, and we must all play for blood. Now I know this is a strong statement, and it is meant to be. Maybe not in the sense that you think though. What I am saying is simple. No one gets out of life alive, so we must play the game with all that we have as though life were ultimately at stake, because it is.
We can't take life to seriously as we go along, after all, it's only temporary. However, we must remember that this life is all we have, and we have to give it all we have. We have to play for blood, and that blood is our own peace of mind and happiness. So what would bring happiness to you and your life in the end? What would allow you to sleep every night with a sense of accomplishment and movement. You must be willing to play the game with everything you have, and give it all you got, because in the end, it is all you have.
Life is a game of war, and you must play for blood. Many people may take this statement as though I mean that you must do whatever it takes regardless of who gets hurt along the way, just as in war. This isn't what I mean, however, what I do mean is that you must play the game of life as though your life were on the line. Ultimately it is on the line. Your well being, your state of mind, your emotional well being, your psychological well being. All of these are on the line. I see so many people who walk around their lives dead inside. There is no greater sadness to me than people who have given up on not only their dreams and happiness, but themselves. People who make excuses as to why it's to late, or their to old, or they would if they could but they can't because.... Life is short enough as it is, there is no need to make it shorter and wait for your turn to be put into the ground. Regardless of whether it be tomorrow or fifty years from now, you still have right now to begin moving toward your own happiness and well being in all areas of your life.
So what will you do now? Will you think about these things and decide to start taking action toward your goals and dreams, or will you allow yourself to shrivel up inside like so many people do? Will you begin to move toward your happiness and well being, or will you stay where you are and only hope and wish for your happiness and peace of mind? Every moment of your life is one moment closer to the end of your life. Every breath is one breath closer to the end. What will you do with those moments and each breath? Will you use it wisely, or let another one pass you by? Will you begin to discover what true happiness means to you, or will you simply hope that one day you will find it? Life is a game of war, and you must play for blood.
This will be an article that is uncomfortable for many people. Death scares people enough as it is, let alone having it thrust into their faces. However, this is something we must all think about at one point or another. Death is the only thing in life we must do, honestly, you can say no to paying taxes and you might go to jail, but there is absolutely no way to avoid death. It is a must for all of us, and all that matters is what we do from the moment we are born until that fateful moment we go back to where we came. We all start dieing the moment we are born, the only difference is what each of us does with the moments in between. When you are long gone and only memories, pictures, and stories remain. When your turn to meet your maker has come, what will you leave behind. More importantly, while you are here, what will you do with the time you are given. With the eternal credit card of time and life, how will you invest? Will it be a story that is worthy of praise, or another letter in the book forgotten once it is passed? What will your story tell, and are you actively creating a book that will hold the attention of audiences for centuries. The choice is yours, because ultimately, life is a game of war, and you must play for blood.
