Different Ways to Play

I've learned that it's possible to adjust the difficulty of games through the inclusion or omission of rules. Some games are too easy, so players make up their own additional rules they have to abide by, to make the game more of a challenge. At other times, some games are too difficult, so players allow themselves to use certain cheats and exploits to make the game easier for themselves. Neither way is "wrong." Sure, playing the game either way may not be in keeping with the developers' intentions, but as long as the game is fun and satisfying for the player, that's all that really matters.

There are many ways to live life. Some people rise to greater challenges than others, and some people make more use of their abilities than others. Personally, I try not to judge those who follow more, fewer, or different rules than I do. We each have the ability to choose how we, personally, want to play the game of life, and we each have the responsibility not to judge those who choose to play differently than we do.
