As long as you are competing with yourself to emerge as a better person, every day, it is the most difficult task you have at hand; whereas, any other competition that exists in the world are nothing but trying to prove yourself in comparison to others. Euphemistically put, one who can inflate the Ego bubble bigger. But, there’s always a simple needle of wisdom which can deflate that any moment.

Right. We are forgetting that in the end, nothing would matter, not the races we win, not the money we make and not even the people we impress.
I wish more of us appreciated the simplicity of life and the beauty of existence. 🙂

Exactly, I can see the foolish conviction that everyone lives with. None can be ahead of life. Gratitude and simplicity is a rarity. 🙂

Yeah. Kinda heartbreaking to see so many people living superficially, blind to the true essence of life. 😦
