Competition

By Bud Lemire

  When it comes to competition, I'm not one to compete
Because everyone in their own way, is individually unique
When they take a photo, I see the beauty there
I take pictures where I am, but can't be everywhere
It is not a game I play on some reality show
It's all about appreciating all the beauty I know
I'm not out to win the grand prize
In this life we're all the same size

I like to see what others have done
Life in my eyes should always be fun
Common sense and appreciation too
Wherever you go, and whatever you do

The human race shouldn't be who wins and is the best
But by appreciation, because life isn't that kind of a test
To me, life is a journey that we learn as we go
The more we learn, the more that we grow

I'm not in this life to win any game
Because in my eyes, we are all the same
When it comes to competition, I'm not one to compete
Because everyone in their own way, is individually unique ©July 21, 2014 Bud Lemire

Author's Notes:

It's always nice to just see things from someone else's
point of view. No one is any better than anyone else, and
appreciation is always the best.
