This quote sums it up nicely for me,

 

"If chess is a science, it's a most inexact one. If chess is an art, it's too exacting to be seen as one. If chess is a sport, it's too esoteric. If chess is a game, it's too demanding to be just a game. If chess is a mistress, she's a demanding one. If chess is a passion, it's a rewarding one.
If chess is life, it's a sad one."
-- Unknown

 

Edit - To me, chess is a passion and a distraction. Your take?

If chess is a science, it's a most inexact one. If chess is an art, it is too exacting to be seen as one. If chess is a sport, it’s too esoteric. If chess is a game, it’s too demanding to be just a game. If chess is a mistress, she’s a demanding one. If chess is a passion, it’s a rewarding one. If chess is life, it’s a sad one.
