If you agree, that chess is like a life,like a fight or a war between two kingdoms; in that likeness, how do u see yourself as a pawn, knight, queen, rook, etc. and why do you think so.

What an interesting question!! A quizzical reflection of your depth and insight!
I'm a rook, (a castle). Sturdy, dependable. Able to withstand assults from life, and ill-wishers, because of my steadfast walls, built on a solid foundation. I move in straight lines, uncomplicated as is the case with Knights. Lacking pretentions, as is common with royalty; such as Kings and Queens. No kinship with Bishops; whom are both Sheppard's and Sheep. Set apart from Pawns; as I have no desire to lead, and wasn't born to follow.

I'm the recipient of a discovered check. Crap keeps popping up unexpectedly and biting me in the you know what.
Wow, what an answer. Deep and yet personal statements, blew me away
Ha ha ha, I think we all have a full measure of this..... Just never give up hope, thats my philosophy
It's a left handed thing. Kinda, since I'm not fully recovered. You see, I tried right handedness from the spring of '92 until about the end of '96. It hurt! So much so, that I experienced ambidextrous tendencies through the end of the 20th century.
Next time I try that, I'll wear a helmet!
I would like to think that I am a knight, because you can puzzle others, make unexpected moves, control squares that hard to systemize vizually and capture like crazy.....And I like to think thats more like me....

I'm a king, in fact my name even originated from an early Irish word meaning "little king" I'm too lazy to do anything myself, so I send others to do it for me. I don't care too much about the fates of others as long as I'm ok =) (jk, I'm not that insensitive, but if I had to choose an extreme that best fit me, that would be it)
Wow, little king, how about some wisdom?

The plastic infantryman used in place of a missing pawn--you know the one that's replaced as soon as another pawn has been taken. Like Muley Graves.

I'm a king. It's fifteen moves into the game. I have not castled.
I'm still standing strong but my position is getting a little ragged.

I'm a fianchettoed bishop- I sit there and influence things from a distance.
