hi crow and Florie

 

i see your points and i do treat them seriously :-)

 

playing with words is easy,,,,

you bring the stuffy word

i bring the " looser " word which comes from being " losers " .

 

sorry,,. when i look at " loose " people they seem losers, not motivated

enoug.

 

winning to me means " well-being " staying in perfect health. feeling joy and

inner peace ... and that does not contradict being able to laugh on

nonsense.

humor is not the opposite of being a serious person.,,,

if you are not " serious " about these goals - how can you achieve them?

you'll never try hard enough to learn, to be aware,,, to act.

 

i quite agree with Florie that compromise is the challenge here, to be able

to distinguish when to be serious and when to be " light " .

practicing moderation

is the most difficult thing to do, for me at least. (if someone here knows

some techniques and tools to help with attainig balance - i'de love to learn

i.e " how to be fanatic in being moderate?)

Just a couple of thoughts on your comments:

 

How do you define " loose " persons and how did you come to the conclusion

that they're losers? How would one determine the correct level of

motivation? Are you really only winning when things are going exactly the

way you think they should?

 

Work through these questions a bit and you may find some of the answers you

seek. For what it's worth, I'm pretty sure that fanaticism is the opposite

of inner peace.

Like Jumbo shrimp or military intelligence, I'm pretty sure it's an

oxymoron.
