Racing

It is not a race if I don't feel like it.
It is not a race if I don't have much chance of winning.
It is not a race if I'm grouchy.
It is a race if its my idea.
It is a race if I'm nearly at the finish line when I say go.
It is not the finish line if I choose another finish line.
It is not a race if an adult might help my brother have a fighting chance.
It is not a race if I decide I don't want to do what is at the finish line.
It is a race if my mom doesn't want me to hurry.
It is not a race if I'm avoiding bedtime.

By the way...this is not an exhaustive list!
