How can we do our best when we are spending our energies trying to make others lose--and fearing that they will make us lose?

It is sad
To see the light of beauty wane away,
Know eyes are dimming, bosoms shrivelling, feet

To lose hope, care not for the coming thing,
And feel all things go to decay within us.
Philip James Bailey
