Born to loose?
I was born to be a looser really, like the entire generation.
I came from too "good" a family to know real loss, really.
Actually, that's not true, it's just that I was always aware
of other people who deserve our pity, our mercy more than we do.
It comes naturally from always having food at the table, and having so "religiously guilty" parents who would always point out to many people
in Africa
who are starving right now, when we turn away the brocolli with disgust.
I was always one of those smart-asses who would in all his childish innocence propose that we wrap up the dinner and send it to Africa.
My proposals were never taken seriously.
I have only ever received (a) slap(s) on the face for my constructive proposals.
