Chess Heaven
Your vision of it... your glimpse?
"What's it like, where you are now," he asked.
"What do you want to hear first, the good news or the bad news."
"Tell me the good news first."
"Well, it's really heaven here. There are tournaments and blitz sessions going on all the time and Morphy, Alekhine, Lasker, Tal, Capablanca, Botvinnik, they're all here, and you can play them."
"Fantastic!" the friend said, "and what is the bad news?"
"You have Black against Capablanca on Saturday."

The best thing about Chess heaven would be the quiet. Pure silence for just you and your thoughts about your next move. The calm and the peace...... 😏
Instead of what I got here on Earth:
"Are you on that computer AGAIN???? You promised to clean out the garage and that lawn's not going to mow itself!"
Yes dear, no dear, I'll get right on it honey......😞
