ON KEEPING SCORE
It seems we live in a world that demands we keep score. From kindergarten children to senior citizens, someone is watching and keeping a record. Nothing is left to spontaneity or chance.
Everything is to be accounted for and you can be sure you will be told by someone the results of the scorecard.
Since there is very little we seem to be able to do to change this, let’s remember one thing. If you insist on keeping score make sure you count points for as well as point against.
There is a growing tendency to use the scoreboard as a weapon, both pro and con. Enough! Just remember to be fair. After all, someone is also scoring how you keep score.
