Man's chief end is to glorify God and to enjoy him forever.
Chess and life are infinite in their possibilities. The future always lies ahead. It does no good to grieve too long for the past. Once a move is made it cannot be taken back. The player must live with the conditions that stand as a result of past decisions. All is not lost when a mistake is made. Future good decisions overcome weaknesses of the past. A well played game and a well lived life brings great satisfaction.
