At least from the standpoint that I no longer try to beat my brother for access to the green crayon.Kate Freemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07826311771326897525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3610430154861217625.post-69303855933073844902011-01-12T07:33:26.961-06:002011-01-12T07:33:26.961-06:00Is there really any progress?

Somebody’s gonna crash. --- Wyclef Jean</i><br /><br />I one time had this dream. Everyone was running this race. I was way in the lead. Just beating everyone. But I didn’t want to keep running this race forever. I wanted to ride my bike to the river. So I stopped running this race and went to get my bike. People got really upset and freaked out. How could I give up my lead? How could I just let my competitive edge go so carelessly? I was fast. I was in the front. I was where everyone else should have been. But if running isn’t my thing, what the hell . . . <br /><br />Sometimes I try to imagine a world (or even just an America) where people don’t strive for a ‘competitive edge’ and rather aim for a high ‘cooperation quotient’. What do you think that world would look like?Kate Freemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07826311771326897525noreply@blogger.com
