Competition
“I win if my house is bigger than yours, or if my cell phone is smaller than yours. Or if my laptop computer is thinner. And yet all this is meaningless, isn’t it? And I don’t mean that in a spiritual way. Be as greedy and self-centered as you want. The only competition that matters, in the end, is about life itself. And the standard is clear: ‘Mine is longer than yours.’”
