A Game of Checkers

Have you ever played a game of checkers?
Have you ever lost?
Have you ever won?
Have you lost but set the board up to play and try again?
Have you ever felt that victory of making it across the board?
Have you felt that victory of 'getting passed' your opponent?
You've felt that triumph!
You've felt that pride!
The first round you may have lost.
But you've laid out your pieces.
You played, you tried again, you won!
You have grown.
You pushed past.
You have risen!
Victory!
