Chess has many parallels to life, perhaps it is a learning tool for life. I don't know if chess will save the world of all it's problems, it tests  a player in different ways. It can be frustrating at times. Above all  it should be a game for people around the world to develop friendships & something to enjoy but to not take too seriously. Wishing everyone well who plays this for fun or professionally,  Jan. 22, 2020
