gain vs. loss
Nothing is gained without the loss from another.
Think about it. No one gains anything without having someone else suffer a loss. No one can gain love for someone without the loss of this same love from another. When someone wins, there are people who lose. It's like matter; it cannot be created nor destroyed, only transferred. Like gambling, one may win money, but only when someone else has lost. Just think, you can relate this to almost anything.
This idea dawned on me one night at a hookah bar in Novi [yeah most of you guessed it, No.VI]. Two of my friends noticed a dollar on the ground which sat on the other side of the patio fence. At the same time, they both jump up out of their chairs and hop the fence. One kid gets the dollar, while the other kid receives a cut on his hand from hopping the fence. It was at that point and time I realised, you cannot gain anything without having someone suffer a loss... not even happiness.
Of course there are probably a number of things that does not fit within this idea, but I believe this idea to be universal.
Oh by the way, I can't fall asleep, so I figured I would write something in here to amuse myself.
