Success and Failure...

Failure and success are 2 hypocrites and sometimes I wonder why at all do we need to fight back the pain or over-savour the success. They are just there, and its a dent on one's humility to hit adrenaline on a success and lick bruised ego's on a failure. Let both pass and there will be some sustained peace.

Both come in any number of flavours in a day, from the hidden joy of solving a puzzle to the frustration at not cracking it after hours together, from the argument well won to the put down, besides of course the more obvious ones.... I think success is only one of the outcomes, and a rarer one, failure is the more frequent one.

While we read many stories of success, we often do not contemplate what after that...IBM got successes through its mainframe and then failure with its desktops. Jordan trumped with Bulls but came short in comeback with Wizards. That's life, do we need treat things as good or bad. Everyone has a reason.

Smile without necessarily being happy and cry too without being sad. Someone may call you a fool, but what's the difference, someone will call you a fool for some or the other reason anyway.
