The adage goes. "Where there's a winner, thus must also be a loser." No, that's incorrect. There are never any losers in life, only winners. This false dichotomy has been with us for millennia and has been the flaw that has resulted in countess man-made disasters and concomitant losses of untold lives. Out superficial values in all sectors are fraught with this erroneous assumption from grade-school play ground games to runs for the presidency, and everything in between. Winners only have to be true to themselves. Whether they come in first or last is immaterial;Β Β the important point is they ran the race They tried their best. That's what winners do. Never forget it.
