Meaning
You are experiencing conflict, an unavoidable thing in life, and doubtless there will be times when you are the winner or the loser, but sometimes the whole game feels rigged and unfair. Do not greet loss with dejection and hopelessness, and, in the same way, a win should not lead to arrogance and self-involved boasting.
