Most of us draw from (rely upon) the pool of humanity for our “wants” and our “needs”. There is regarding this:

•God’s original plan for this;

•Man’s subverting of God’s plan; principally making unavailable the basic tenements of God’s design;

•Man’s tendency to confuse wants with needs; the tendency of Man’s reach to exceed his grasp.

Sidenote: For much of my life I felt life, things, were happening to me. THAT I SHOULD HAVE HAD THE UPPER-HAND, BUT DIDN’T. It would anger me particularly when I felt the odds for success were in my favor -and failed. I felt from a very early age that failure was my constant companion -success, in my mind soothes alot of hurts -but it doesn’t necessarily address the issues themselves. I was all-too-wulling to settle for success (which felt good -if not fleeting), whereas facing the issues themselves, I would come to learn -came at a price in addition to the losses previously suffered. 😡

The US Open women’s tennis final 2021 just spoke the statistics statistic 2 and 13, when on my phone watching the ESPN app for the giants versus the cubs, the score just changed from 12 to 3 giants to 13 to 3 giants. I always find it knteresting when this happens. In the 7 a.m. meeting earlier this morning, it also happened. Leah who was chairing said “someone” as I was writing, 🤔 it. Twice in a day -WOW!

I see a future of people where stimulation from one source -alone will not be sufficient.

Be a good winner not just a good loser
