A Game of Chess

There's a Chinese proverb that says "Life is like a game of chess, changing with every move".  I've tried playing chess numerous times over my many years.  I've never been good at it.  I've even played chess on my computer, choosing the lowest novice level.  The computer always won, no matter how many times I tried.  I suppose I never understood the logic of making moves.  Oh, well, the game at least makes you think and keeps your grey cells moving.  It also reminds me to live in the moment.

Go Someplace New

"Once a year, go someplace you’ve never been before" (Dalai Lama).  This is just one of 21 rules for good living stated by the Dalai Lama's Rules for Living.  See http://www.highexistence.com/rules-for-living/

He really shows his wisdom in these "rules".  This is a very thought-provoking summary of good living.  I keep reading through them and find myself thinking about something new for each one.
