Everyone gambles and those who say they don't, just don't understand the world they live in. For myself, I gamble. I gamble a lot. It's my job and I'm one of the few who can say they love their job. And I've come to understand a simple fact of this warped universe; everything has some element of chance either for success or failure.
At 45 years of age I've come to realise that nothing is really ever perfect, especially if I'm a variable in the equation (I won't talk about math a lot, promise). I try to make perfect my lodestar; something for which to strive. At least where writing is concerned not so much about gardening or yard-work.
