Hi Fivesixer! I gave you five stars because I don't believe I've ever read such a deep, philosophical Item like this before.
In my opinion, it gives the question of life a new meaning. Not only does the author question life, but has a number of questions which seem to not have an answer.

Bravo for writing a piece which provokes lots of thought. One could feel the strain of the complex questions, while attempting, in vain, to answer such questions. The pondering alone could possibly take many turns, as the reader contemplates several of the various paths.

I thought you showed creativity in beginning the thought of the first stanza with the idea of how everything starts at one, and then revisiting that idea again in a later stanza.

We are always taught that everything starts at one. You presented an idea that everything starts at one, except when we start at zero. It's true! A zero is a nothing - A place holder of things which haven't began yet. So yes, you are correct, I agree, that the goal is improvement. If one starts at zero, it is a starting point where the imagination thinks of a goal. It gives a chance to start, and then to have more than they had before.

That brings up another question you offered. Perhaps once this person has a goal in mind, when does that person get the chance to proceed in following that goal. Will that goal be successful. It's hard to say. I thought you expressed that feeling well, with relating it to winning a lottery.

Here on WDC, for example, we might enter a contest or challenge. We put in work, but there's no guarantee that that anything will become of all our hard work. As you put it, "we might pay back in interest, but that doesn't defeat the purpose of getting ahead." It makes me thing that life if full of chances. We win some, and we lose some. I'd like to think that we learn along the way.
