Permanent “Wanting to compete”

In everything that man does,
to bring in his life,
seems to be about the struggle:
In thought, word and deed.
As if he is constantly looking
for an opponent,
with whom he can measure himself.

A battle of good and evil,
of right and wrong,
of better and worse,
in which man takes on a role:
He considers himself
to be the measure of all things,
is better than others,
always wants victory
about the “peculiarities” of others.

When we finally stop doing this
and meet at eye level,
then the comparison stops,
the attitude of being better.

Our ego, our mind
will then become less.
