Life's a Game I'm Just Playing Tetris

     People debate whether everything happens for a reason, and others believe people create their own destiny. When you think about what the meaning of life is, in a way most people don't, your life gets turned upside down.
     Tetris is a game of finding the right pieces to fit in the right spot, to create a connection. In life obstacles are presented to everyone, but only you hold the key to make it fit. When someone has to choose between one thing and another, people begin to think what the outcome would do for them self. Temptation is one thing that can keep something great, or end something beautiful. A game is something where you can control the outcome in order to win.
      Life and a game fit together so closely some people never have the thought process to understand. Within a game people have the control to determine what the outcome will control, within life people have the opportunity to control the outcome of their future. As humans we have the power to become whoever we want to be, as long as a work ethic is existent.
      Anyone can win Tetris by putting in the time to succeed, by thinking through every possibility and by understanding the consequence of a wrong move. The correlation between Tetris and life makes you wonder whether everything does happen for a reason. If I were to choose to walk to school today, and ended up getting hit by a bus, would that be planned or did I create that problem?
       Next time you walk outside, think about what you are doing, think about what you want to accomplish in a day, and think about who you want to be as a person. Know that you hold the power to create who you want to be as a person. Know you have the opportunity to leave life with the legacy that you want.
