Learning how to lose.

on
I guess this is where it begins, the journey.

Every time I lose I give myself a headsup. Lesser battles left.

This time when the count ran three on the same line,

I took a bow.

I had played my part.


P.S.
Bob Dylan said, build a ladder to the stars, and climb on every rung.
May you stay forever young.

    Take a bow for every part you play, each role is important. Doesn't matter what it is, we ourselves, along with anyone else, can learn something from it.

    I am very proud of you. I am sure one day you will win what you are striving for. Like Ryan says we all learn when we loosed.

    Love the theatrical approach to having too much to bear. Everyone can use this poem just as they notice they survive anyway. What a beautiful blog! Thank you for commenting on mine.

    Each time we overcome and accept a loss we learn a valuable lesson and become stronger. Beautifully written.

    This was beautifully written... I am in that phase of learning how to lose... that is not the easiest lesson in life to learn but one that is needed... Each loss teaches us a valuable lesson.... some more painful than others...

    Every winner was once a 'No Body' or a 'Loser'

    its what in us that counts and makes the difference

    Life is a lost battle, as long as you don't believe in heaven.
