The Game of Life

The Game of Life has Circles and Crosses.

Circle of Family, Circle of Friends, Circle of Influences, Circle of Happiness, Circle of Trust [:-)] and also Circles of Google+.
And then there are Crosses, a Cross for anything that goes wrong in life.

While looking at this game, I couldn't help to wonder - When is it that we really lose the game of life?

Is it when the crosses line up - these crosses of under-achievement, crosses of failures, crosses of fear, crosses of pain & suffering, crosses of misery, crosses for every mistake we make and crosses for every blow we take!!
OR
Is it when we start moving away from our circles, when we get thrown out of circles, when we cannot help the circles from disappearing and sliding away from us - circle that is family, circle that of friends, circle that is called life!!
