You Be You!



"The older I get, the less I want to win."
Olivia Ann Clarke

Never have I been competitive and I do realize this could have its disadvantages. Contests, games or races never attracted me. I would be happy to watch and cheer, but hesitant to run the race. If you have to choose between me and someone else, your indecision tells me you need to move on. Take the other person with you.

My motivation is to be an enhanced version of me, not beat you. The desire to keep moving forward to not necessarily to be 'better', but to experience diversity in thought, word, and deed. My desire to change through vast experiences results in being a more interesting human, not a combatant or victor.

There is a saying about 'you be you and I'll be me, and together we will move forward'. Doesn't that sound better than racing forward to conquer our teammate? I do not want to be better than anyone else. I want to experience your authenticity at its best, not some projection of a hyped up, single minded, game player.
