It is interesting to note that we indeed live in a world of measurements. I must say I tend to avoid, overlook or undervalue them as they have a tendency to cause anxiety in people that isn't necessary nor productive. I do not care how I measure up to others, if gas is 5 cents less expensive 4 miles away or if I could save a buck by buying things elsewhere. It just isn't that important to me as it tends to require constant monitoring and thought. At the end of the day I rather just have fun, not just by going for an adventure but by learning something new, helping make peoples lives more enjoyable/less stressful or creating a new space by building or landscaping. I just figure if you treat people well, take off your mask and be yourself regardless of who you are spending time with, then you have created a situation where all things are possible. Giving is a particularly difficult concept for some people if they see others as takers or opportunistic so learning to trust is a particularly important trait. While I enjoy sports, in life I am not much of a score keeper as I am really too distracted to keep track of something I don't feel is that important. I believe it all evens out eventually whether you call it fate or karma, and being positive, optimistic and hopeful will lead to good things.
