Sometimes, I have worked hard to just fall short of my goals. I know how it feels to know that you were almost there but didn’t quite make it. Not bad, actually. In fact, it feels great to have a “silver medal” to show for the effort. But, then there are times when at core you know that you didn't even deserve a Bronze but won the gold. That is the feeling I rarely have experienced. That is depressing.
I don’t mind being ‘second best’ as long as I know I did what I could. I am not competing against others, only against myself.
