I could have been 23 next July I gambled on what mattered most, the dice were cast. I lost.

About This Quote

This is a good example of how people treat their lives. They gamble on what they feel is most important and then they lose. This quote is about how we all have our own lives and we decide what is most important to us. If we decide that we want to do something, we will be dedicated to it and work hard at it until we succeed.

When we do not want to do something, we will not put our full effort into it and fail. We all have many opportunities in life and we often choose the ones that are not most important.
