if life is a game of chess, and i'm a piece, i've been struck off the board. i'm watching the game play out but i'm not included in it anymore. i'm a spectator, unable to participate, because if you're not on the board, you're no longer relevant to the game. there is no rule in chess that allows for a piece to enter the board again later on. you had your position and you played it wrong, and now you're out. so what do you do? no one can answer.
