the second posting of the day: the spirit behind BornLozer's name

The Born Lozer, I've been using that name for some internet accounts I made, and chat-rooms I visited. Some people have asked me what the nick means. Some other had made their own speculation about the term means. According to them (yeah! the narrow-minded them! :P) The Born Lozer, means a nick that is used for the hopeless one, the pessimistic one. It is only used for those who think that they are a loser.

Indeed, the assumption could be a right one. But sure, there's no exact interpretation in this world, for any kind materials. Each people has each own definition and view toward one similar thing.

I was Born as a Lozer, I always say that. Well, for point number 3, it's almost close to my former interpretation of the real I am. Actually, the nick itself founded after my first broken heart (yes! Screw You my ex-Little Angel! I am NOT in Love with YOU anymore! I've found the new Princess!!!). I was so lacking of self-confidence, and thinking how lame I was. So, the assumption that the Born Lozer's nick is used by me for representing my lame in love; somehow is right.


But it is not anymore.. I have a better view of this nick.

Philosophically (don't ask me who made this assumption, it's my own thought, :P) when you're admiring something, or willingly to earn something (e.g.: to be a winner, a chief of group, manager, anything that put you in the highest position), you should start it from a very basic position, the lowest one. It's as an analogy, that all big things were started from smaller part. A building means nothing without it's door, a plane means nothing without it's wings, a car without it's wheels and a body without it's soul? (er, I don't see those are the right examples, lol).

Anyhow, the point is, to achieve a winner, you should pass a lot of field included being a loser. You do something and lose, do it again and lose, doesn't mean you're not worth enough to win it, but just need some more times for your self-improvement. Beaten in a competition teaches You a new experience (gives you the feeling of being a loser for instance), but it doesn't always mean the negative result you've got is not bringing betterment for you?. Being a loser now gives you another chance to learn more, just in case you'll struggle again to achieve the winning someday. Trust me, You'll learn a lot when you're being a loser, much more than taste the smell of victory in a very first place.

The message is that, it will teach you to be tough. Born as a loser makes you think that you still need to work harder and harder to achieve your goal. And when someday, for the hard work you've been through, you finally win the chance of victory, you will taste how nice it is!


So, this nick Born Lozer has also a positive interpretation. The bottom line is, never judge people by the way they addressing themselves, the name they use, their look, or even the shoes they wear! The world is full of un-categorized people that can't be determined their deepest heart are by You!
