There are various states of mind which bring about happiness. That state of mind which insists only upon freedom can bring about nothing but unhappiness. It would be better to develop a thought pattern which looked for new ways to be entrapped, and things to be trapped in, than to suffer the eventual total entrapment of dwelling upon freedom only. A man who is willing to accept restrictions and barriers, and is not afraid of them, is free. A man who does nothing but fight restrictions and barriers will usually be trapped. The way to have endless war is abandon all war.
As it can be seen in any game, purposes become counterposed. There is a matter of purposecounter-purpose in almost any game played in a field with two teams. One team has the idea of reaching the goal of the other and the other has the idea of reaching the goal of the first. Their purposes are at war, and this warring of purposes makes a game.
