Numbers, measures and us

Investment houses, athletes, students and many other people can be obsessed by numbers.  Scores, number of games won, dollars saved, dollars earned, etc. etc.  If we want, we can be immersed in numbers.  Here is a plea to try to appreciate wonders, beauties, achievements without numbers, and scores.  If I make a lovely kick, an amazing goal, a terrific save or catch, they are lovely and amazing and terrific in themselves.  My house can be a wonderful dwelling without having the most square feet in the neighborhood.  My car can be a very satisfactory transport without costing the most, being the lowest consumer of fuel, accommodating the most passengers.
