Life is honestly just a game, but to really explain why it is, you have go back to the beginning when man used fire to cook food and before that, man had just discovered the killing power of sticks and stones.
Now look at how that has helped us to today, because if man had never evolved, then where would we be today? Would we still live in caves made of stone, would we still be the killing race as we were once or worst? Would we be extinct from the face of the Earth and all that would remain would be our flesh and bone decaying by the day and hour? So I now ask you, do you now think of life as a game now?
