If you know me, then you know that I am super competitive.
So, what that ultimately means is that I hate losing.Well, the longer you live, naturally you have more chances to lose.
So, I actually can handle it much better!
But, what I don't like or appreciate are 2nd place trophy.

On Memorial Day weekend, I played my first tennis tournament in about four years. My partner and I should have won.
We lost.

I too have an interesting story about winning and losing. I was in a piano competition in the 5th grade. My music teacher made me practice, practice, and practice! She gave me the music sheets for the composition I was to play so that I could practice at home. I lost the music sheets! The day of the competition my name was called and I sat down at that piano and played my heart out. WITHOUT the music sheets. Yes! I had memorized the notes and played the piano piece. I came in 3rd place. I was bummed out. But my mom told me: “Child! Everybody else was older than you and they used music sheets. You were the youngest contestant and you played the music by heart; from your memory. I don't care who they gave the 1st place blue ribbon to ... You're the winner!”
