what have I learned from playing solitaire on computer?

By
Home Stager with stagewithme, Greenville, South Carolina

Spider solitaire is my favorite game to play on the computer, it releases my tension and stress and calms me down.

I think there are some very important life lessons that can be learned from this game, besides matching the cards, and enjoying the rush you get when "You are the winner " sign flashes and there are fireworks on the screen.

 

*  You have to play with the cards that you are dealt with.

*  In life you do not get what you want always, sometimes you just have to wait for the right card to open up.,

*  You just have to make the best with what you have.

*  You have to work with what you have, until you get another option.

*  It is not always that you will win the game.

*  You do not give up till the end.

*  You never know what surprise card  will  open up and you will end up being a winner

*  Sometimes the card is in front of you but you do not see it.

*  You cannot go back on your move, once it is made.

*  Sometimes you have to live with the decisions you make weather they are right ones or wrong ones

*  You have to look at all your options,

I understand your feelings regarding spider solitaire.  It also relaxes me and is great for a two minute break!  As for life lessons I don't know.....

Does it say something about me that I don't know what my score is?  It just matters if I win or not.  And, losing isn't a big deal because I can just start over.
