Underdog# daily prompt # season 4# attempt 25
If life is a game
We all face
Victories sometimes
Other times the blames
To be an underdog
Get bullied or defamed
Even if an underdog
Whom do we want to defeat?
Winners following
The age old norms or
Robots following the rules blindly?
Better to be a nobody
Instead of one of the face
From factory manufactured
Dysfunctional brains
Create a new world
And charge heavy duty
To give entrance
To all those
Who once mocked you
For being an un- fit!

I like your title, Meenakshi. It could be an underdog today but above all tomorrow. So one may not bully today in fear that he might be an underdog to the one he bullies today!

I was racing to the finish line. The first half was okay. The second half was terrible. I couldn’t keep track of sequence of the events. I wrote it in third person, but I’m going to edit it and change it back to first person because it was my story. I may eventually post it on my second blog. Thank you for your interest!

Nailed it with this powerful reflection on hypocrisy and double standard raging in our society, Meenakshi.

There is too much of judgment in the society we live in and even among relatives. I have kept away from people sending negative vibes and go with the philosophy no expectations no self-harm.

Same here, lately I have stopped visiting and minimising contacts with such people. Better to keep connections that help us to grow too…
