after a loss

This time of year, when the leaves start to fall and chilly breezes whip around, one feeling fills the air-suspiration. For most, that means roast turkey, buttery mashed potatoes and pumpkin pies. For others, it could mean a loss in a sporting contest. Whether big or small, losses leave us feeling down. But, as the saying goes, "win or lose,

each of us goes forth from here a better person." When we lose, the perseverance that comes with the fight or the love we poured into the endeavor is certainly humbling.
