There are about as many ways to win as there are people. The same thing doesn't work for everyone.

I'm still trying to win each and everyday I begin The Good book stresses loving our fellow man but at times it seems to be the product of a messed up plan The preacher holy man seems to back this stand The whole idea at times seems to be a too high demand It seems every time I show love the same fool still pushes and shove Then it moves into the turn the other cheek theory Trying to love a fool makes me feel all weary I end up being the only one using the word sorry It seems the only way to win is to stay far away from the maddening crowd love from a distant and don't get loud But even from far away some fools still mess up the day especially when they can't match your play opg

Saying "I'm sorry" has a way of belittling you. I have learned that from experience. We are, one an all, subject to or pre-conceived thoughts and prejudices. When it comes to love, that is the only emotion, I have found, that allows the heart to rule, and when the heart senses that love is being flaunted and ridiculed it acts, not necessarily in the best interest of itself. Loving our fellow man is preconditioned by loving ourselves first. Not egotistical self love, but loving who we are. Got a bit carried away here, I suppose, just trying to make some sense of my thoughts.
