Each and all of us [[play]] the '''game''' of [[truth]] in every encounter with our [[Friends|fellows]]. The field is endless and the rules are [[simple]], no one wins [[alone]]; the prize awaits the [[moment]] when we all have won together. The [[sphere]] with which we play is [[glorious]], but ever [[changing]], and with each pass it advances or retreats in splendor, depending on how it is thrown. Some think it should be thrown 'at' another, but of course, it is 'to' them we toss it in advancing levels of [[art]]ful exchange for it is in this sphere we see in vivid [[color]] the [[reflection]] of our [[evolving]] and [[collective]] [[soul]].
