Game of Life

Must we know the answer
In this game of life we play
Do we always have to win or lose
Or is it better just to play?

Must life be all rewarding
In each venture must we gain
Or would it be much better
Just to have played the game?

Is success so all important
That it makes us what we are
Or would just to find contentment
Make us better off by far?

There really is no answer
Except in each and every heart
We know that thirst for knowledge
Will make us play our part.

It's never an ending drama
With a plot that is unknown
And in the answer lies the question
Would it be better to have known?
