CHESS AND THE ART OF WAR
Its not just black and white.
its a game of logic and chance.
it requires strategy and skill.
what are you willing to sacrifice for the ultimate goal?
how do you get there?
no path is ever the same.
what type of player are you?
the thinker- always two steps ahead?
the defensive- guarding at all cost?
the aggressor- bold and decisive?
the responder- position based solely on opposition?
some say that chess represents the art of war.
and i agree- but i must add that it is also a love story.
in every game the queen is the most powerful piece on the board.
she moves freely and purposefully.
many fear her.
she always protects her king- but she also has the ability to destroy him.
many pieces fall in pursuit of the king.
some even return to the board.
pawns require the most patience.
the most advanced adversaries and allies are found closest to the center.
for these allies guard him and guide you to him.
but there is only one true king.
