  • Ah no... Their success is just that... Theirs .... Yours belongs to you... It's not a zero sum game... Both can win

    Whether they actually are or no is mostly a cultural thing, Some cultures are very competitive. As an example: in Japan and USA competition is seen as a value in and off itself. Thankfully many other cultures are less extreme about it :-)) This post was edited by JakobA the unAmerican. at February 10, 2017 1:41 PM MST

    Agree Lago, but supposing his need is very acute then isn't it better to dampen our chance? Maybe I'm not being realistic here,but bring idealistic is not that bad, ...hmm

    not something I would think at all Veena.
    Love to help people succeed, get happy, get healthy, get enlightened.
    Love to help people find the Truth within themselves.

    Dampen my success? Hah! no way.
    Am rooted in reality and not the illusion 
    of the world. :)
