scrabble


Scrabble, a beautiful word game. Here two to four players score points by forming words from individual lettered tiles on a gameboard marked with a 15-by-15 grid. The words are formed across and down in crossword fashion and must appear in a standard dictionary

Sometimes i feel life is just like the game of scrabble. The tiles relate to all the small things we call our own. Family, friends, love, work etc. 
when you pick them up from the bag we really don't know the order of importance. All you know is that whatever you choose you would have to make sense of it. If it doesn't fit into your dictionary of life it just doesn't make sense, you don't gain any points.

Playing this game alone is not possible similarly life spent alone is just not that fun.
you have to use your imagination and build on words just like you do on relationships.
Its all there all you need to do is build on it. Like every game it has its rules. You cannot create words that dont exist, similarly one cannot be assuming things and creating misunderstandings.

At the end of it the person who wins the game is not the one who has used most of the letters (tiles), its the person who has placed them in the best possible manner and earned maximum points.
We may not meet too many people or make to make too many relationships, what matters is how and where we place those relationships.
