My little own self
 

I decided not to do the coffee grinder gift
I hate to have to back out. Honestly however
I don't think its a concern to anyone involved.

Funny thing about betting money at the track -or online -
Doc told me this many times and its all over the follow up
Its a lonely place.
To be really good your "friends" will act different when you win
Think they will be happy for you ? They really will not.
Funny thing when I mentioned the $72.00 horse
mostly all I got was disinterest and avoidance

My life is changing I have recently moved. I gave away or sold or put into storage most of my "stuff" I went out and brought new clothes I eat out
(healthy good food) and treasure the goodie bags from mom and dad. I just settled some issues with my accountant and that burden is finally over , I have moved into a beautiful new furnished room
With a real nice dad and son as my landlords. I find more peace in reading
the follow up and working on my first book and just reading between races
Racing and learning and sharing with true friends who truly want to better them selfs. thats what it about for me This is my talent I want to be a master at the races
I need peace with myself
Now each person has there own view of friends. I am very thankful for the lessons i learn from winners here
I know what winners do and what non winners want

Thanks
hope all your rides home are happy ones

My very best wishes to you Bill as you continue on your 'lonely' magnificent path. It may be a lovely ego-booster (and who doesn't want that) but it doesn't matter if anyone else knows or slaps your back over your $72.00 win, or your 25% ROI or whatever measure of success you choose. What matters is if you yourself know it - and believe it - that this is normal, that you win races, that you help others not for their praise in return, but for your joy in being a conduit.

What if all this was not about winning horse races at all? What if it was all a divine ruse to induce each one to learn a little bit more about become real human beings, peaking under the covers and discovering a surprising and delightful self hidden within?

That's an example of winning behaviour, in my book.

Ted Well said.

Bill,

Ted is very eloquent and I agree with what he said.

When I was in the Navy I had an instructor who used to tell us "sometimes you have to step back look at what you have done and pat yourself on the back for a job well done."

Bill you do a great service for those of us who are trying to learn. For this, I thank you.
