Winning. Redefined.

Is it possible to be outscored and still win? After all, isn’t winning about being successful and isn’t there more than one way to measure success? Ben and I played hoop today with the joy and passion of Peter Pan (and the defensive intensity of Tinker Bell). I almost forgot how much I love the echo of a dribble on pavement, the sting of sun & sweat in my eyes, the sound of good-natured trash talk, and the sight of children smiling.

If that’s losing, I’ll take it.
