What's with that

Today, while driving in the car, I read a little slogan on a car that caught  my eye:
"My dog is cuter than your grand kids"

A while back, I read a similar one also on the back of a car which was driven by a very "typical" grey-haired grandma which read:
"My grand kids are cuter than yours"

While I understand that this is probably mostly meant funny and not to be taken seriously, I still wonder
WHAT'S UP WITH THAT MESSED UP THINKING?

I assume people find it funny - I don't. I find it disturbing and rather embarrassing for the owners of those stickers.
Are we really that far that we want to compare cuteness in Grand kids? Like that's even possible. It's very relative.

It's not really just this "funny saying" that bothers me... it's our mindset. We constantly compare.
Don't get me wrong, I'm as bad as the average is.
But instead of embracing it, let's work on that.
Just cause someone else is good at something should not take away from your talent. If others are gorgeous does not mean you are not pretty yourself. We can always find "smarter" people and more talented ones, skinnier, prettier, funner, cooler, more adventures ones...
BUT
is that really what counts in our lives? Are we willing to depress our talents and beauty only because we are not ready to understand that the progress is what counts rather than what we can show for right now? Or others may say, the way is the goal (sorry if that's off, i totally just did a direct translation from German).

Just wondering how you feel about it all. And no worries, I'm not depressed, it's just some thought I had today while reading this sticker. Yes, I think a lot. About random things. It's one of my "strengths" hahaha.

Leave a comment, this could be very interesting!
