Please allow me to think back....

....to something I was exceptional at.  Horse racing - backing those that didn't win used to be my forte.  Had it down to a fine art. 
Anyway, think of two horses which have run neck-and-neck to a photo finish where one is seen to have beaten the other by a nose. Is that really the way of the world? We can have only one winner? Actually, such a belief system is for losers! Real winners, surely, would have come up, long ago, with a more refined, sensitive and intelligent way of evaluating success or failure.






Isn't the competitive culture terribly antediluvian? Don't go the way of the dinosaurs - uphold a value system based on something smarter than silly numbers.













You can stand tall without standing on someone.  You can be a victor without having victims.    (Harriet Woods)
