Blamers, Gamers , and Lion Tamers

say as much as you can in as few words as possible
say more
most

I was doing the nasty but necessary chore of cleaning the koi pond filter this evening.  I have come to realize that chores are extremely important in clearing the mind for greater uses. 
A trite but true-ism wafted through the focused silence.

There are three kinds of people: Blamers, Gamers and Lion Tamers.

It might be best to stop there.

You fill in the blanks.

Blamers_______   Gamers _______  Lion Tamers_______

...if you are blanking on the blanks, consider these fills.

We can Blame the blamers for blaming and become a Blamer, too.
Owning the error smothers it.
Blame just puts it on someone else. And on. And on. And on. Etc.

Gamers...shame, shame, shame. Using and abusing others to get there.
Your Manic Manipulation is only fun for you, so we leave.
There is nowhere when you are alone. 

Lion Tamers. Thank you. So few of you. You make it safer to be free.
I Aspire to Tame, too.
Maybe I have, but far too few times to be named one,
or to be through.
