Some people say "loser" as though it's a bad thing...

... but there is also a popular slogan that is accepted by many people (or at least, like "honesty is the best policy", given lip service by many).

I am referring to (paraphrase ahead!):
What matters is how you play the game, not whether you win or lose.

Also, who sees the future clearly enough to say with complete assurance that someone who is said to be a loser today won't be a winner in future?

1. You win a few, you lose a few...

Sometimes you have to let a few go in the process, and sometimes you pick up a few gems you didn't even think of before.

I had a teacher tell me once that if you aren't failing (losing) you aren't trying, because you can't win them all, and you can't win any unless you try.

2. So, is losing a religion for you?

I'm curious about the placement of this thread.

3. Good, bad, how you play the game, and the future.

Do you recognize in the title of this post any theme that you've seen before in any religious context?

4. Yes, of course.

Sermon on the Mount comes to mind.

Karma.

Reincarnation.

Is that the point? (I'm not playing dense -- I'm actually curious where you're going with this.)
