He always would play fair, but in the end she always won. It’s no wonder she picked up the board one day and screamed, “It’s not right! You ALWAYS let me win! I want to know if I’m actually good at anything in this great big world! And you, you’re not even close to helping!” As the pieces fell to the floor in the most beautiful of ways, he wrapped his arms around her and looked up into her ocean eyes, “But I am playing fair, I don’t know how to play this. No one taught me when I was little.”
With that, the room fell silent, the pieces grew legs and put themselves back together again, and they two humans stood still wondering how they had gone so long without ever knowing how the other felt.
The rush of victory was intoxicating. The President called her name, and Catherine accepted her new diploma like a medal of honor. With her nose high in the air, she looked down at the crowd of well-wishers shouting out names of friends and family. She had none.
I would love to win at the game of life. Winning doesn’t necessarily mean the first one to finish. Winning means something different to each individual.

Sometimes I like to think about if I were to win a race. I don’t really like to run but I think that if I were to train and really work hard at it, I could do it. I am not much of a runner but I have a great desire to be in shape and I would love to accomplish something like that.
Diana
Maybe life isn’t about winning. Maybe it’s about learning more, doing more, celebrating more, and just enjoying what you have. I would know, because I can’t remember the last time I’ve won anything. But that’s okay. Because maybe just trying your hardest is what winning really is.
Abigail
Oh, what a win it woul be to lie next to you. Wouldn’t it? I actually can’t think of a life next to you. I have pretty much everything to be happy and jolly and just be myself and enjoying my life. Still I am just waiting and changing myself to be with you even if I have no idea who you are.
i love to win
winning means i’m the best
i view my days in wins – some are better than others
but if you only focus on the win, you lose perspective on a lot of other things
i hope i don’t miss out on those things

If there is a winner and so there must be a loser! I think I have become better at losing, I mean you need the sour to appreciate the sweet, so be it……sweet and sour!

It is torture to look at the person you love every day and realize they don’t feel the same way about you.
It’s torture to touch someone who’s empty and hollow.
It’s torture to be suffocating the only thing that allows you to breathe.
“Are ye daft, girl? Didn’t ye hear what the man said?”
“I heard him,” she said, swinging herself up onto the horse.
“Then what d’ye think yer doin’? Ye cain’t win this’un,”
She turned to look at him, gray eyes flashing like polished steel under the noonday sun. “It’s not about winning; it’s about standing up for what’s right,”

He smirked as she moved her lips and deepened their kiss, grinding her body into his with a need for her pleasure to be satisfied. Maybe he was finally winning?
Her gasp as he pressed himself against her and the way she moaned his name was enough to tell him that, yes; he had won.

Winning isn’t everything in life… One must learn how to lose first to then experience winning. Winning is to be successful to some and to be knowledgeable to others. There must always be a balance, therefore, we cannot always win.
Guts. It took guts to get where we are and it took guts to do what we did. To come out and say who we really are and be true to ourselves. We stared society in the face and stood our ground. We were something great.
something you accomplish
something you earn.
get something for trying.

Winning or loosing does not matter. But, attitude with which you play game is all that which matters. To be a real winner, you need to learn how to handle a defeat. How to lift up yourself and try again.
Human nature is to be victorious over another. Winning is in our blood, and from a very young age, we are taught to push others down in order to win. Most children start sports when they are three, five, or somewhere around that age. They are always pushed to do nothing but win.
Trusting Christ in all things for you have the Victory. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me; in this win! Jesus is the answer in all things that we do. If we just place our hope, faith and trust in HIM alone, we will win in all areas of our life! Just trust in The Lord with all your heart and He will sustain you.
Terri
I win because I am on the winning team! I have victory in my life. I press forward with purpose and destiny. I win because Christ is the head of my life. Everyone can win, all can have victory through the love of Christ.
Annette
A goal was scored, people jumped, people screamed. Some were happy, some cried in disgust, thats the thing about winning someone else always has to lose. Always someone on the other side.
Lari
“It’s a win for Antelope!” The announcer cries. We’ve scored the final point of the match. We’ve won. For the first time in centuries I feel pride again. I can do anything. Anything except walking.
the victorious festoon stringed together to door hinges,
bridges us to the hallmark of the moment.
“yes, indeed darling, your mine”, she withered.
door knobs began rattling about,
her car alarm sprung out of control,
I was left, watching her lock her car.
Did I win?
FTW! I’m a-gonna win this. When I first started writing online, I used to get notes from an elderly woman who went by the name of WIN. She died and I was profoundly sad. That was not a win!
you win again and again but it only makes the losing harder.

As he raced across the finish line all he could think was, “I did it, I won!” He had tried many times and failed, but not this time. Life is good
Lana Pickering
You win the game if you cheat the system. But if you cheat the system, you automatically lose. So, in essence, there is no possible win. There is no feasible success. No triumph. No victory. You lose, or you lose. Simple as that.
Unless you find the loophole. There is always a loophole. Sometimes it’s hidden. Sometimes it’s in plain sight, and you’re looking too hard for it when it’s right in front of you. Read the rule book. Doublecheck each second letter of each word. Then, begin the process of total annihilation.
Belinda Roddie
That’s what matters, Johnny. All the work, all the pain, the sweat and tears, they don’t mean anything if you don’t go out there and get it done. You’ve trained your ass off for this, kid, and I know you’ve got it in you. Now get out there and sell some vacuum cleaners!
Winning isn’t everyting, it really matters how you play, and how you practice. If you want great things to happen put in the work. If you expect to win everything, more than likely you won’t put in the work needed to win. Champions are those who don’t give up.
Laura
who wins? i don’t always win, but then again i do. who cares to win or lose really as long as you’re living your life the way u see fit. unless that’s the goal in life, to win. or is it to be happy? hmm interesting who knows. i’d want to be happy rather than win. winning = happy?

once there was a girl and all she wanted was to win prom queen. she tried so hard to be popular that she lost who she truly was. When she lost her father she starts to realize there’s better things of importance.

“I don’t understand life…” I say.
“What do you mean, Laurel?” Hannah asks.
“Life is about winning. I can’t win. I can only lose. May…I lost her. I lost May because of me.” I say.
Will
It’s the main goal isn’t it? To be on top. To have an adversary and beat them or overcome your obstacles. Kind of objective though. I could say I won a challenge by not tripping as I walked down the hallway. Kind of basic, but a victory none the less.
Rachel
It’s not about the win. It’s not about the victory. It’s not about success, about getting there, about making it, about being anything else except for where you are and what you are right now, except that you always need to always be moving forward. That’s the difficulty. That’s where we get hung up. It’s not about the win, but we do need a goal. We need a thing to work towards, even if we don’t know what that thing is. Our bodies know.
I win the softball games. We win the prize. Win the trophy.
