The game of life is a lot like football. You have to tackle your problems, block your fears, and score your points when you get the opportunity.

Life is a game, play it; Life is a challenge, Meet it; Life is an opportunity, Capture it.
In the game of life, less diversity means fewer options for change. Wild or domesticated, panda or pea, adaptation is the requirement for survival.
Life is like a game of cards. The hand you are dealt is determinism; the way you play it is free will.
It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye, then it's just a game... you can't see anymore.
