The Pawn and the King
*After the game the pawn and the king go into the same box.* I was already writing about game called 'life', and, now I would love to talk a bit about what happens after life. To be clear at the beginning, I do not want to talk about life after life, about Heaven and Hell, and about the other world. That topic is very, very deep, and I do not know enough about it. Actually, I personally think that there is not any person, who know enough about that. We can only believe. To believe that there is a life after life, and to belive that there is not a life after life. I respect people who believe, and I also respect those people who do not believe. Whatever you believe in, while you are not doing any damage to anyone else, is okay, I respect that and I support that.

After a person die, the funeral or the cremation pass, people go home, and keep living their lives, person who died is dead. No matter if person was rich, poor, smart, stupid, pretty, ugly, tiny, fat, tall, short... Everyone is just dead. As dead as any other dead person. If you now think that you are better than someone else, or you think that someone is better than you, because of money, appearance, house, car, job... That is just not true. We are all equal. Maybe someone has more money, maybe someone is smarter, but as human beings we are all equal. You are as human as any other human. That is why you should stop thinking about other people, and what thye have, how do they look like, what they do not have... Find something good in your life. Find something what you love in your life. Find your purpose. The Pawn and the king, and all other figures on the chess board have their purpose. And every single figure can be the one, who will help to win the game. Everyone can be amazing, everyone can be the best! And, no one is replaceable. Sometimes a well placed pawn is much more powerful than a king.

It is not important who you are, what you have, at the end, you will die, just as someone who has nothing. So, stop chasing money, jewelry, cars, expensive clothes... enjoy your life, and accep the fact that people who are 'worse' than you, actually are not worse. They are as valuable as you are, they just have less material things than you have. And, you are as valuable as someone, who has more material things than you have. We are all different, we look different, we are doing different jobs, someone has bachelor's degree, someone does not have, someone is rich, someone is poor. But my point is that everyone deserves to be respected! You do not have right to disrespect someone just because you have more material things that that person. You can be rich and still be a very bad person, and you can be poor and be an amazing person! Respect is something what you will deserve with your behavior, with who you are, and not something what you will buy with money or power. I really hope that people will realize this very soon. People have to realize that, people have to realize what is truly important, to realize what true values are, and why people should appreciate each others. You can be the king, but you cannot stop death, and you can still be 'eaten' by the pawn. You will not stop what is coming, and we all know that the end is coming, we are all going to die, and because of that, let's enjoy important and valuable things while we are alive. When I say valuable things, I mean things that really have value, and those things are love, freindship, family, good used freetime... And, all those things are free, and they are available to everyone. What is your opinion about this? Please, share what you think about differences, about love, trust... How do you chose who to respect? How do you know that someone is good person?

This is because all human titles are illusions. Like all borders, nations and other divisions. But the saying quote is clear.
I think that people nowadays are looking only things that they wanna see. They are not looking what is deep inside of each person.
We are not all the same, people are different, they think differently, they write, they write, but before God we are all the same, money is important, but it doesn't matter if you are rich in money but in your heart, what you left behind at the end of life, people think differently about wealth for some is money wealth for some health for some families.
I agree with you! We are all the same in front of God, we should be same in front of law, we should be same in front of each other. People can be devided only in two sections, Good people and bad people.
Very nice and instructive text! Family, true friends and health are the only wealth! Everything else is fleeting ...
We all want to be good in something, to have something, and that is okay, but that is not most important. We are all same, and we need to give our best to be good.
Yes, but still, that saying was coined by pawns, as a consolation for their hard life
I think that pawn can also be very happy and satisfied. Pawn, rook, knight, bishoop, king and queen. All of them have theri function. All of them are necessity in one society. All of them can be good, all of them can be bad.
I never liked to play chess, but they say it's good for brain cells
Yes, chess is great, but the point is not chess. Chess board is ideal to show one society, one country, one town. People are different, people are doing different jobs, have different material things. But that is not showing us what they truly are.
This is good article for chess players.. I'm not one of them, but I like theme! Thank you so much!
There is also the example with cards and card tower. We are all dead when we die, there is no way back, money will not help you when death comes for you. That is why we need to pay attention to things that are really important.
This remind me about movie "Seventh seal" where man and Death played chess and they bargain, one for his life back, and Death, of course, for man's soul...
We are all, I believe, pawns in some life game. Now, no one knows for sure if anyone is sitting behind that chessboard and moving the figure.
That is true, but that is one very deep topic. It isinteresting to talk about and to think about who is moving figures, who is behind. But, I guess that we will never know that.
Yes, in another world we are all the same!
We are the same in this world too. Just we sometimes do not see that. Sometimes we forget about what is really important.
difficult topic
Yes, it is very difficult, and i think that people should talk more about it, specially because of younger generations, who need to know that people are all the same.
my life is just like that, I pull a car, I come up with combinations of how to get through the cheapest and the most painless way to overcome some situations and so I run an activity 99% of the day to be king for just one moment
We all need ot be as kind as we can. We all deserve kindness, ans if we want kindness we need to give kindness.
