How important is winning? We play sports to win, we strive to be successful and reach our goal. Others have something to prove, be it for insecure statement or harmless fun in an event. For some Martial Artists it could mean competing at a match or a forms stand off. Beyond your opponents there will be that one being, that one person who has been with you all along. He, or she will have tormented and spurred you on...helped you cry and helped you to smile.
It is YOU! The core of the word SELFISH. It is the ISH ness of the SELF that has been with you from day one, a blessing or a burden...this is the US in the YOU, the AM in the I. At times the self is naughty, at times is good. Our friend will at times in our life have gotten us into trouble and then again... maybe they have helped us out. Never give in to the self of shadows, but look for the self of light. This is your internal YIN/YANG speaking volumes, and how many Olympic athletes have prepared the SELF through battle until now. The moment is NOW. So we all fight against our true selves, not others. If THEY are a YOU, in the meaning a human viewpoint then ultimately there is nothing to prove. Only SELVES who have yet to awaken to the duel of their natures...just like me, and just like you reading this now had too, or still are... will be forever lost until we experience spiritual awakening. It is natures way for us to "Penny drop" to REALISE... it is inner OCCURRENCES that pivot us so that we point the way we wish to lead. That my readers is DESTINATION UNKNOWN...
