Ordinary life: marauder of human spirit

I have grit and determination. But buried deep inside. Give me a chance, ask me to prove myself. Give me worthy opponents.

I want to fight, and win and relish the feeling of accomplishment. I am tired of enjoying these feelings vicariously.

When I see movies like the great debaters.
When I see test matches like perth 2008.
When I hear stories like that of Ambani.

Is it indoctrination, or is it my nature that I love stability?
How much should I cheat myself to challenge myself in my daily life?
Has mundane acquired a new status in my life?
