Why do we gamble?
 
I found this somewhere on the internet.

The thing about gambling is you're never fully satisfied.
Winning is better than losing, but neither one is the goal of gambling, which is playing.
Losing never feels like the worst part of gambling.
Quitting often does.

Father God,Free those of us who have fallen into the grip of gambling.

I don't invest. I donate my money to numerous betting agencies!

Seems funny to me that they are gambling on whether or not there is a god....

Life is a gamble... Every decision we make is a gamble. Every time we weigh up our options and choose either way. Every decision we make is based on us thinking it is the best way to go...

We cannot choose to gamble or not to gamble, as that choice would be a gamble.. It is a part of life, not a choice....
