I started playing chess as a child, but had a long break. Love reading, snorkling and traveling. I think chess is as life: sometimes you give a lesson, and sometimes you get a lesson. And there is always something new to learn. Ohh, by the way I find great comfort in listening to Bob Marley's songs, especially lyrics like "..every man thinketh his burden is the heaviest..." Great wisdom! And if you don't have a burden, then what's the problem? I will claim win on time, as you should with me
