And The Winner Is?


Neytiri: To become "taronyu, hunter, you must
choose your own Ikran and he must also choose you.
Jake Sully: When?
Neytiri: When you are ready.

With this town gearing up for the Academy Awards, I'm reminded of how it feels to be a winner and how it feels to be that loser. Losing isn't the best position, but honestly it's part of the game of life ... and if we attach too much to either winning or losing, we miss the opportunity to experience the game in the first place. I do wonder how those losers (with big TV cameras on them), clap and smile and look SO unfazed !

I personally need a moment to regroup after a disappointment ... but hopefully the regroup doesn't take very long! As Neytiri says in Avatar ... "when you are ready" ... so in life really. Being ready for whatever presents itself is key to the amount of grace that we handle situations with.

We're all winners ... really .. award or not!

Cool Tip: If you find yourself at the Academy Awards (or any other leg revealing event), during the long winter ... consider using L'Oreal Sublime Bronze Self Tanning Towelettes (surely beats a quick trip to the Tropics and costs less too).
