In the grand theatre of existence, we tread,
Not merely chasing laurels, nor fearing dread…
For life’s essence lies not in winning’s feat,
But in the shared journey, where souls meet…
.
Each step we take, a waltz in the cosmic ball,
Every moment, a note in the melody’s thrall…
No victor crowned, nor vanquished in defeat,
For every soul holds a role, unique and sweet…
.
Through highs and lows, we navigate the tide,
In unity and harmony, our journeys are tied…
For in the tapestry of life, each thread is spun,
Under the same sky, beneath the same sun…
.
Let’s treasure the moments, both big and small,
In the grand mosaic, each one stands tall…
For in the end, it’s not the score we chase,
But the grace with which we embrace life’s embrace…
.

Couldn’t agree more!
Perhaps we need to rethink “score” as the components of a song, rather than a discrete, isolated 1-dimensional entity? Embrace the bear!
