Meet my Dad, who still plays skillful chess(barely) at age 98. I give him my queen to start and we have some great battles.

He doesn't have any great chess world achievements to his credit..........except that he taught his son(me) to play chess in 1966 because he wanted to share a fun game with the son that he loves......... and look what happened.

Never underestimate your seemingly limited power to have a positive impact on other individuals that blossoms into something much greater because that person passes it on and amplifies it in their encounters with new people!
