Much of a chessplayers time is spent in quiet solitude. Studying openings, middlegames and endgames. Playing over the games of past and current masters, grandmasters. Delving into, solving, positions that require thinking two moves or twenty moves ahead. Natural ability will only take you so far in chess, book study is required, one must know all the facets of the game. It truly is...a life time adventure.

Chess is a fun game, although I'm not very good at it. Nice composition.
