Good morning, Team! It’s Friday!

Have you ever…

•kept track of how many drinks each person in your party pays for?

-at one sitting

-over a season

-during a friendship

•noticed how many times someone lies in a conversation (or a presidential debate…)?

•scoring while playing a game with friends or loved ones to see who bested whom, and how often?

•follow strokes on the golf course to compare against yourself (handicap) or against the other three players to see who owes whom what or who’s buying drinks at the end of the round?

Of course you have.

We all have an innate desire to keep things fair, equitable, even…and when it seems to tip so far out of control, we might say we’ll leave it to karma, relating to actions and consequences.

-Someone might be able to escape paying their fair share…until they lose friends over it. Who’s buying crying now?

-Lying to hide the truth or gaslight someone into believing they’ve broken some cardinal rule when it was actually the accuser holding the smoking gun…and the truth comes out like a jailed prisoner chirping to their cell mate. Some things only time and God can reconcile.

We all keep score.

Most of us have a conscience and are committed to doing the right thing, the right way.

If the only way you can win is to cheat, lie or make your own rules, you should probably find a game where you can win fair and square or just stop playing.

Have a blessed weekend!
