Competition - blessing or not?

Is the preoccupation with competition, with declaring wiwnners & losers - in sports, cooking, writing, even poetry - a blessing or a blight on the overall health of society?

Depends on how you take it, I guess.

To me, if it betters you then good. As long as you try to do better and understand that you did your best.

To some, there's a need to compare, it kind of breeds jealously and envy.

And to the few, it breaks them. A learning process.

We all can't be the best all of the time, but we can all try to be better.
