We often see our lives as a tragic tell, how the world seems to crash down on us and most time is does. and people can either help us or harm us. i hoever see it as a very shitty game. one thats has to played multiple times to understand. Ironically enough i find it similar to a chess board a game of wits, to defeat your oppennet you must think the way he does, outsmart them, make them hessitate to find oppening.
People can be the same as chess peices, and here is why. Lets start with the bishop. The bishop is commonly refered to a religious peice. There will always be two in your life. The God you worship in, and the person you go to for religious guidence. They seldomly give you a straight answer but always help you when you need it.
Next is the Rook, a strong and powerful peice. It is one of the most feared peices for its ability to both attack and defend effectily. These are associated with people who always have your back, and are as stubborn as they are helpful. They clear a way when you are threaten or in danger.
Knights are the most agilie of board for the can take out peices that will likely be a problem. Same as people you dont always see but know that works in your best interest. They are always moving around, finding loophole to turn a disadvantage into an advantage.
Next is the Strongest, most powerful piece, the Queen. it goes everywhere, takes out everyone and is the first and last defense. it is always in the best of everyone interest to remove the queen from the equation, otherwise your defense will suffer. The queen is commonly refered to your lover or a really close friend or reletive. If they see trouble the often pounce onto the problem before the king can move properly.
Now the the King is you. You are the person everyone wants to trap and destroy. You want to succed in life but your enemies will try to hold you back or sabotage you. Therefore you are one of the more vulnerable peice. But that also means they wont see you coming, if you are clever enough, even a king can beat a queen.
Every King has a goal and the pawns represent those goals. when you are playing alot of your goals will be crushed. but if you can stretch at least one goal across the board you will have an asset in enemy territory. if not, it provides an oppertunity for you other peices to thrive and move around
Its hard, being a king, but it is worth it in the in if you keep playing. Even if it takes multiple games to master
