So, the other night I was laying in bed and it occurred to me that no matter what you do in life its a competition. You may disagree but look at it this way. If you have siblings you are constantly trying to out best them. In your friends group and acquaintances you may not realize it but compete against them in some form or another. You grow up and at work you compete on the corporate ladder for raises and positions. Spiritually religions compete against each other to have the most followers and believers. If you get married and then divorced you try to make the other look bad.
So, why do we make everything a competition? Why can't we help each other succeed and be equals? If you look at society men compete against women. Day shift against nite shift and the list goes on. Its said that its a dog eat dog world. But why does it have to be this way? Where in the world did we get this toxic mentality? I would like to hear your alls thoughts on this. Is there a way we could eradicate this thinking and behavior?
