Day #3 of ‘Free Will’ week at The Napkin Dad Daily
Here is the interesting part. What about when you KNOW the cards you are being dealt? They are showing face up. Think about your school, spouse, job, house, car, city, clothing, hair style and more. You know and see all those things up front. You pick them with the most information you can have. You pick them of your own free will. And then? And then, you have to pick another card, and get rid of one or two. Then you have to combine them with other players’ cards. Then you have to fold and start over. Then you get a straight flush only to find out you aren’t playing a game where flushes mean anything.
Life is like a game of cards. Multiple games with many different rules. Playing isn’t easy, winning isn’t easy. But not playing, not taking the card, not making a decision is worse than playing and losing.
Play.
