No Competition

[Reflective & Contemplative Poem Collection] -
Competition and the way we think of it is an interesting idea. This poem espouses the view that there is ‘no competition in God’s mind’ … which does not negate our dreams or ambitions … but proposes another way to think about it.Show more

No Competition

In God’s mind … there is
No competition.
That is a thought choice ….
A human volition.

Propagated in greed, by other
“powers that didn’t care” and
Gained their ‘loosh’ on or off
All others’ despair.

Well, we’ve had enough of that!!
Yes, we do have to make
Some efforts … to engage
And navigate in this here world.

But ‘vie’ or ‘compete’ …
That part is just an illusion.
Knowing this … you become
Part of the solution.

Give of your best …
‘Live and let live’
Perform to your own ‘optimum’
And also cheer others on, with optimism.

They do not negate you by being.
The challenge of encouragement
To be better is the
Bit worth the seeing.

Do you yet realise …. That
All us humans, if herded as one
Would fit in the ‘Lone Star’ State of Texas
And still not be stuck together?!!

Boggles the mind … but ‘tis true!
And what does this fact tell you?
We’d each have 104 sq yards or
86 sq meters, to reside ‘alone’ in!!

God made this world sufficient for all.
So don’t into that negative paradigm fall!!
There is ‘no lack’, none at all.
And no competition … Let that ‘egg’ you on!!

All that being said … there being
‘no competition’ in God’s mind …
Doesn’t mean we have to negate
our desires or ambitions.
It just negates the ‘push’ for
being divisive or creating division.

Remember, 86 sq. metres each,
For all world’s population in
Texas land mass alone?!
Plenty of room in the world
For explorations and ambitions.

No need for competition.
