Challenge vs Defeat

I believe that everything is life is a challenge.  It is part of what makes LIFE a life and not just a combination of seconds, minutes, hours.

Without a challenge - why are we here?

But being Challenged does not mean that we can't do something, we can't accomplish something.

It means we are LIVING.

Give me a challenge every day, because when I look back at all I have done, all I have accomplished, I want to KNOW that I have been LIVING and not just existing - DEFEAT is NOT an option.

How about it ... Do you agree?
