My love is a red, red rose. Life's a bowl of cherries, say some. Life's the pits, say others. It's a jungle out there. A delicious smogasboard.
Life's a game.
The Myth of Sisyphus tells the story of an extended life metaphor. Sisyphus was condemned for eternity to push a giant rock up a mountain and watch it roll down. Only to push it back up again. Try that as a metaphor for your life or your trading and notice how you feel. Now try saying that life or your trading is a sacred gift.
