Dick-idioms are philosophical little gems that I have penned over the last few years. This one concerns the importance of one’s perspective.
*“DICK-IDIOM # 33”* *PERSPECTIVE* TRUISM *“Some say ‘if you come in 2^nd, you’re the first loser.’* *Some say, ‘2^nd place is like kissing your sister.’* *But, there really are times* *when 2^nd place is best.* *For instance,,,* *when you’re talking about* *which mouse gets the cheese.* *Or,,,* *When you’re deciding who’ll be 1^st* *to step out of the foxhole.* *Or,,,* *When you’re discussing* *who’ll be the first* *to drink the Kool-Aid.* *As always,,,* *it’s all about perspective”* © 2011 Richard Lee King.
