Life has but one true charm: the charm of the game. But what if we’re indifferent to whether we win or lose?

Charles Baudelaire
About This Quote

The world is a game. Life is a game. The pure joy that comes from playing is what allows us to enjoy what little time we have with the people we love. If you are indifferent to whether you win or lose, then you are missing out on the absolute joy that comes from playing this game with life.

One of the most important things in life is to play. Play with life. Don’t let your emotions get tamed by it, don’t let yourself be tamed by it.

Instead, play with it. Enjoy life as best you can, but know that it isn’t always for everyone and do not fear losing control of it. You will be lost without it and misplaced without yourself, but if you take the time to play, you will find meaning in the game of life and realize how beautiful it really is.
