What's Your Race?

by Carlie-Shay

WHAT'S YOUR RACE? Is it who's on the Forbes list first? 
Or who has the latest whips and chains? 
Is it who can leave their land and join the fast race 
because they are last place in their race? 
Or maybe you don't know what race you are in 
because ages ago your ancestors join the race without knowledge? 
WHY DO YOU HATE OTHER RACES? 
Is it cause their finish line is closer than yours? 
Or maybe you want to put them out the race 
because they have a better insight on how to get there faster? 
Is it cause someone other than you deserves confetti and champagne? 
WHY DO YOU LOVE OTHER RACES? 
Is it because you like to see someone other than yourself being praised? 
Or maybe because you want to show other races 
that if you bring forth two different engines 
you will get more in the end? 
Maybe you would like to see what two different objects 
can create as the final projects back at the garage, No? 
WHY ARE YOU AFRAID TO TRY DIFFERENT RACES? 
are you scared to leave you element and face the new?  
Or maybe you think that if you don't get it right the first time you can't try again? 
You think you'll FORGET ABOUT THE PAST races? 
Or maybe no one will be cheering for you? 
SO, DOES THE RACE REALLY MATTER? 
If everyone is trying to be better shouldn't it be a positive element? 
If someone is moving along and want to see the end of the tunnel 
shouldn't that be just that? 
Isn't improving what life is about? 
WINNING? LEARNING? EVOLVING? Who said someone had to win? 
You can learn from losing right? 
Evolving, who said that would always be easy, that only happen with time anyway right?
