It is no secret we all wish to do well in our lives. We have goals of our own, goals of our families, borrowed goals we think we want for ourselves because others do. It is the latter that worries me. Of course we can take it as a game, as a competition. The race. Healthy amounts of it does no harm. Maybe. Maybe it even gives us a hand with our own goals.
Or maybe it gets out of hand without us noticing and the race runs us. Ruin us with never ending lust for more. Like blood crazed hounds. We become blind and deaf to our own moral compass. Brushing it off as nothing. Justifying even. What else is there? Got to run the race. Got to smash the competition. They are the ones being greedy. Giving them a hand? Nah. Too easy. They got to run and outrun us first.
Why you run? Where are you headed? Where are you now? Winner stands alone… Really?!
