Better

I know that when writing my realizations, it is better if you tell the story behind how I got to thinking about the emotional or philosophical aspect of the matter. I've been told this many times.

However, sometimes it just isn't your story to tell. 

Competition is only fun when both parties win at different times. If one party always wins, it ceases to be fun for the losing party. It results in the winning party feeling superior. 

This behavior pattern is written so deeply in our mind that we tend to compare ourselves to others even when there is no soccer game, we do it all the time subconsciously. 

We compare each other based on actions or choices, hereditary traits, skill obtained by practice, etc. And the problem is there is no right in doing this.

People make choices based on how they've grown as a person. How they have been influenced by their environment and experiences. People make foolish decisions based on negative experiences, being raised in a neglecting environment, a hurtful environment even. People make good decisions based on positive experiences, being raised in a nurturing environment. 

There are people that were given less, and people that were given more by those around them. 

Occasionally there is a person that was able to transcend a negative environment and become a product of their power of will alone. They gave to themselves what others neglected to give them, be it belief, love, hope, courage. 

Even these few people, those who did the psychologically improbable, are still not better than the others. They are stronger but not better. The moment they think they are better, it is sure they are not.

People are given hereditary traits through DNA by their parents. They cannot chose what they look like, their ability to become physically strong, mentally smart. Again, some people are more privileged than others. 

People can only become skilled at so many things, so this is affected by choices and whether or not one is fit for the task based on genes. 

All creatures are created and remain equal in their purest form. It is up to those more able to help those in need.
