What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity.

The good they do is inconceivable. - Joseph Addison (1672-1719)
You are only sure of today; do not let yourself be cheated of it.

We ought to be more concerned about removing wrong thoughts from the mind than about removing tumors and abscesses from the body. - Epictetus. (50-138)
The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, not to worry about the future, or not to anticipate troubles, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly. Buddha (BC)
He who seeks revenge should remember to dig two graves. -
Chinese proverb
A quiet mind cureth all. - Robert Burns (1759-1796)
When you are good to others, you are best to yourself. -

Your own mind is a sacred enclosure into which nothing harmful can enter except by your permission. - Arnold Bennett (1867-1932)
A crust eaten in peace is better than a banquet partaken in anxiety. - Aesop (BC)

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
