the pawn

sometimes i feel like i am nothing but a pawn in this corporate world.. pawns have to work hard, and were still very poor. there are more of them than any other pieces on the chessboard.. and often they are sacrificed to save the more valuable pieces!! but if you think about it, who really is not one in this big picture of things? sometimes you only find value in yourself after being used..

you ask me if i would rather be the queen.. i will probably say no. while the queen is the most powerful piece of the game it is also often put in the most precarious position.

one thing for sure, in any given chess game, there can only be ONE queen on the same side. if you have more than one of these ladies, they then have to be on OPPOSITE terms.. :)
