Score Keepers

I have noticed in life there are a lot of different types of people. Not sure what I am but believe I am evolving from one type into another. Today let's talk about "score keepers". You know who I am talking about, those people who have nothing to do but keep score in life. For example if you miss their party due to a once in a life opportunity, they see that as a negative in your score column instead of a positive that you had an amazing opportunity to do something that only comes around once in a life time. They are so caught up in keeping score they totally miss the bigger picture of what is really going on in life around them. I feel really sorry for score keepers because they miss out on so much and carry so much angst around with them fearing they or those they care about will not end up on top with the highest score, what they don't know is that the things they are keeping score on have no value in what type of person you are and actually reflects a very shallow, insecure person who has no deep meaning to their life. Everyone has their own purpose in life that may not be evident to those around them. Score keepers should put away their pencils and paper and start living their own life instead of watching everyone else's .
