Lost time, lost beloved, lost belongings, lost memories, lost friends, lost childhood, the life is full of losses. What losses can be gains? Can weight loss be health gain? Can stress loss be glad gain? Can greed loss be content gain? What loss is gain? Lost jealousy, lost anger, and lost desire to vie are true gains. I lose jealousy in this moment, it might come back in the next. Anger sparks momentous and it can become humongous. For what am I vying? Aimless souls running around, stressed mind working restlessly, ghost bodies vying to compete fruitlessly! One becomes jealous of superiors, angry on inferiors, and vies with contemporaries. The content life I live is built on the three losses. Today, I am happy because I am not jealous, I don’t vie and I am not angry. Today I am content because my mind is at peace. Today I have gained, because I lost.
