It is better to go to a house of mourning than to go to a house of feasting, because that is the end of every man, and the living takes it to heart. Ecclesiastes 7:2
Do we gain more insights in winning or losing? While we are feasting and celebrating, we seldom look within to see what we need to improve. In times of loss, we often gain a new prospective on the changes we need to make. A sports team may play a lousy game, but if they win by won point they celebrate all the way home. Another day they may play well but lose by one point, and the trip home is silent. The next time we find ourselves in a house of mourning, may we learn how to take the lessons to heart.
