In the end we're all losers. If you're lucky you don't have allot of stuff
to fret over, because when we die, none of it is going to really matter anyway.
Introduction
If you have any kind of Christian background you've heard of The Beatitudes.
This is where The Teacher espouses all these virtues that are contrary to
what the world believes. Things like being in a state of mourning or
knowing that you're really broke. As opposed to always striving to be
rich with all your desires fulfilled.
To that end I'd like to add "Blessed are the losers for in the end
they'll meet the one who's already won."
God doesn't like poor people more than than the rich. It's just that
poor people tend to give Him more cooperation.
In the same way, it's never good when tragedy strikes. But it's
in those times we see how fragile life is as we gather around and
get closer to God and to our loved ones.
And God doesn't want us to fail all the time. Yet when we do fail
that's when we can really learn what to do next.
"Blessed are the losers for in the end
they'll meet the one who's already won."
