Why take some things so seriously? Life is just a game.?

Question

I don't know what has happened. I feel that there is no need to take anger, humiliation, reprimand, certain people (especially people at work) or etc seriously. They do nothing but to harm myself. Life is just a game. Why do I have to make myself unhappy, frustrated and etc to lose this game of life? I need to make myself happy everyday to win! I'm not going to let those people win in my game.

Answer 1

It sounds like you don't care.

If bosses at work are reprimanding you then it shows you just don't care anymore. It probabaly shows you just don't care in general.  Been there done that.

Do you have an example ?

Answer 2

Well the attitude that you have is quite commendable. As long as you enjoy life it's all good.

Answer 3

You can think of life as a game which always defines a winner and a loser.

Or, you can choose to embrace the concept that life is an opportunity to experience the richness and texture of the cosmos.

In that context, there are no losers.

Answer 4

Because life is finite,but the soul is eternal.Life is a war,not a game.

Answer 5

This is easy to say but very hard to do. You say all this but I bet if I push the right button, I will make you angry. We are all human so it is to hard to control our emotions whether it is anger or anything else. Good luck.

Answer 6

If life is a game, it's a serious game...maybe being in the game is more important than who wins or loses.
