I'm in school studying the general subject of criminal law, the program I'm taking is called Protection, Security and Investigation, and one of my teachers is a criminal defence lawyer. A lot of my teachers talk about some very interesting subjects, but this really stuck out to me - the below isn't a quote, it was simply inspired by what he had to say.
We could define a game as something that has a beginning and end, and rules. With that being said, life can be defined as a game; the game of life. It has a beginning and end, and rules. You can't simply win this game for that would technically make you dead, you can only be winning. To be winning you must understand the rules so that you may use and interpret them to your advantage. The trick to this game is the amount of differentiating groups playing and therefore a rule is not permanant for it is varying in interpretation according to each group.
The rules to life are governed within different societies and cultures, and therefore are subject to varying interpretation, for they all aren't going down the same road at the same time. Due to this, depending on where you live and how you're raised, your self made role in the game of life will be different. I say self made role solely because you have to make an imprint yourself and participate in society; life won't stop for you, it's up to you to stay ahead of the game. The fact that there are so many different groups of people is what creates such variations within rules, and with that a rule is not permanant, it can be changed by means of interpretation. This is what we will use to our advantage to stay on the winning side while playing the game of life.
