Do you think sometimes life is like a gambling? What are the instances or situation that you ever encounter that life is like a gambling where you can risk the important thing just to get the bigger thing but face it sometimes it fails? What are the advantage or disadvantages when you risk a thing so that you can get the higher ones?

of course we can put it that way. it often is like that anway sometimes in life instead of the cards we get when gambling, we get chances, choices and it is up to us to bet on a chance or a choice that is presented to us, that is our call and whether we get the result that we want, that is what we will, of course be gambling on. like gambling, life is unsecured too.

Well if you see that life is a series of choices and opportunities then we can as well defined them as a kind of gambling. But in life we also have Faith. Peoples with faith tends to had better chance of limiting their good choices or even bad choices because believe it or not this world tends to work with some mysterious power handling the chances and the opportunities. Some believe in miracles and some does not. But if you have faith and hard enough effort the favor eventually goes into you. For that a gambling concept might as well forfeited in this kind of situation. There always special occasion too where the result can be predetermined. That would be not gambling at all right.

No I never looked upon life that way. Honestly saying I wonder why you think that way, or look upon life that way. I think over situations/possibilities very fast and if it's worth to me I do it. It has nothing to do with gambling to my opinion. Also not by risking something important since there is no important thing if I decide to do something, then I go for that.

That is why I said life is LIKE a gambling at times and this has nothing to do with the gambling itself. Since I've already explained the reason that it can be related into some other aspects then no need to repeat it. It is about giving up on something but then you are not sure if you are going to win or lose. Well it can be about decision making but then again it has something to do with life as well.

hi, yes,i could say that life is gambling and we play it without assurance if we gain,success or fail in life,sometimes we need to take a risk for the better of our life,taking a risk is sounds to no assurance in life and it will depend on how we handle and face it.
