Again I question the concept of winning. What is the point of coming up on top if you lose only seconds or minutes later? What is the point of winning if defeat is not accepted? Wouldn't the world be full of losers if all of us were winning?
By losing, all of us are accepting humility and kindness over cheap, fake, breakable ecstasy for a brief period of time. So I will be proud when I get to say that I am losing.
This is a study on the human obsession of winning. Again I ask you what is truly winning deep down inside your heart, and whether each time someone other than you is "winning" a bit of your humanity is chipped out because of this obsession. There are other ways to be happy than to win, and one of them is accepting defeat. Accepting defeat is the greatest lesson of all, and one all of you should take care to learn.
